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.

Ask HN: Who is hiring? (April 2024)
Zilliz (zilliz.com) | Hybrid/ONSITE (SF, NYC) | Full-time
I am part of the hiring team for DevRel
NYC - https://boards.greenhouse.io/zilliz/jobs/4307910005
SF - https://boards.greenhouse.io/zilliz/jobs/4317590005
Zilliz is the company behind Milvus (https://github.com/milvus-io/milvus), the most starred vector database on GitHub. Milvus is a distributed vector database that shines in 1B+ vector use cases. Examples include autonomous driving, e-commerce, and drug discovery. (and, of course, RAG)
We are also hiring for other roles that I am not personally involved in the hiring process for such as product managers, software engineers, and recruiters.

Ask HN: Who is hiring? (February 2024)
Zilliz is hiring! We're looking for REMOTE and/or HYBRID roles in SF
Zilliz is the company behind Milvus (https://github.com/milvus-io/milvus), the most widely adopted vector database. Vector databases are a crucial piece of any technology stack looking to take advantage of unstructured data. Most recently and notably, Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG). For RAG, vector databases like Milvus are used as the tool to inject customized data. In other words, vector databases make things like customized chat bots, personalized product recommendations, and more possible.
We are hiring for Developer Advocates, Senior+ Level Engineers and Product people, and Talent Acquisition. Check out all the roles here: https://zilliz.com/careers

Qdrant, the Vector Search Database, raised $28M in a Series A round
Good on them, I know the crustaceans are out here happy about this raise for a Rust based Vector DB!
(now I'm gonna plug what I work on)

Vector database built for scalable similarity search
As another commenter noted, Milvus is overkill and a "bit much" if you're learning/playing.
A good intro to the field with progression towards a full Milvus implementation could be starting with towhee[0] (which is also supported by Milvus).
towhee has an example to do exactly what you want with CLIP[1].

What Is DocArray?
The description of this is kind of confusing but I think the easiest way to understand it is that it is a data processing pipeline of sorts. Take unstructured data and apply transformation and computation. A similar project to this is Towhee (https://github.com/towhee-io/towhee). This project tries to simplify unstructured data processing and provides pretrained models and pipelines from their hub.

[P] My co-founder and I quit our engineering jobs at AWS to build “Tensor Search”. Here is why.
Milvus also has incredible flexibility when it comes to choosing an indexing strategy, and we also have a library specifically meant to help vectorize a variety of data called Towhee (https://github.com/towhee-io/towhee).

Build an Image Search Engine in Minutes
I made a tutorial for building an image search engine with python. The code example is as simple as 10 lines of code, using Towhee and Milvus To put images into the search engine:

Any good libraries for feature extraction?
Traditionally, I've done this through PyTorch by adding a hook, but this requires knowledge of the model itself (i.e. model arch and layer names). I found https://github.com/Hironsan/awesome-embedding-models but it didn't provide many CV-focused open-source projects. There's also https://github.com/towhee-io/towhee which is great but more targeted towards application development.
