Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Are we at peak vector database?
Traditional DBs already kinda support vector DBs via pg_vector extensions and such.
There is a YC startup, latnern, that also built their own extension for postgres that is open source and is better for vector DB use cases: https://github.com/lanterndata/lantern
But yeah! Traditional DBs already support this, if you consider this extension to be part of Postgres.

90x Faster Than Pgvector – Lantern's HNSW Index Creation Time
This extension is licensed under the Business Source License[0], which makes it incompatible with most DBaaS offerings. The BSL is a closed-source license. Good choice for Lantern, but unusable for everyone else.
Some Postgres offerings allow you to bring your own extensions, for instance Neon[1], where I work. I tried to look at AWS docs for you, but couldn't find anything about that. I did find Trusted Language Extensions[2], but that seems to be more about writing your own extension. Couldn't find a way to upload arbitrary extensions.

Are we at peak vector database?
> Always felt they're more like hashes/fingerprints for the RAG use cases.
Yes, I see where you’re coming from. Perceptual hashes[0] are pretty similar, the key is that similar documents should have similar embedding (unlike cryptographic hashes, where a single bit flip should produce a completely different hash).
Nice embeddings encode information spatially, a classic example of embedding arithmetic is: king - man + woman = queen[1]. “Concept Sliders” is a cool application of this to image generation [2].
Personally I’ve not had _too_ much trouble with running out of RAM due to embeddings themselves, but I did spend a fair amount of time last week profiling memory usage to make sure I didn’t run out in prod, so it is on my mind!
