jehuty VS sqlite-vss

I used Langchain before for a job interview and was not confident with how it works under the hood and how dangerous would it be if there’s some injection going on. So I used it as minimal as possible. It took me a lot of codes even though when I’m using it minimally. One of their example is to call an API by letting LLM parse a documentation and call the API from its understanding, which looks so unreliable if the LLM went offs a bit. I found it hard to give total control to Langchain.

I tried experimenting on building a library that makes it easy and transparent to use LLM https://github.com/adityapurwa/jehuty and tried the middleware approach that might be more familiar in general. Its an experiment so the API might changes a lot until we find a sweet spot. If you have an advice or suggestions it would be helpful and appreciated.

I guess this is an answer to the GitHub issue I opened against SQLite-vss a couple of months ago?

Perhaps sqlite-vss? It adds vector searches to sqlite.

Utilizing sqlite-vss to store and query vector embeddings managed by a local SQLite database, Semantify conducts fast, precise vector searches within these embeddings to find and recommend relevant content, ensuring readers are presented with articles that truly match their interests.

Whether you’re navigating through well-known options like SQLite, enriched with the sqlite-vss extension, or exploring other avenues like Chroma, an open-source vector database, selecting the right tool is paramount. This article compares these two choices, guiding you through the pros and cons of each, helping you choose the right tool for storing and querying vector embeddings for your project.

Here is a SQLite extension that uses Faiss under the hood.

Not associated with the project, just love SQLite and find it very useful.

Vector Databases: As your data grows, efficiently searching through millions of vectors can become a challenge. Specialized vector databases like FAISS, Annoy, or Elasticsearch's vector search capabilities can be explored to manage and search through large-scale vector data. Your sentence is grammatically correct. In addition, databases like SQLite and PostgreSQL have extensions, such as sqlite-vss and pgvector, that can be used to store and query vector embeddings, respectively.

I had a go at one of those a few months ago: https://datasette.io/plugins/datasette-faiss

Alex Garcia built a better one here as a SQLite Rust extension: https://github.com/asg017/sqlite-vss

Since the problem domain is that of anomaly detection from constructed request feature embeddings, I wonder if an ANN-search methodology using an embedded database (such as https://github.com/asg017/sqlite-vss or similar) was explored.

As I searched for "sqlite vector plugin" I didn't find any results, before a couple of weeks ago. Two weeks ago I found Alex' SQLite VSS plugin for SQLite. The library was an amazing piece of engineering from an "idea perspective". However, as I started playing around with it, I realised it was ipso facto like "Titanic". Beautiful and amazing, but destined to leak water and sink to the bottom of the ocean because of what we software engineers refers to as "memory leaks".
