    The LLM Evaluation Framework

  • Pinecone, the leading closed-source vector database provider, is known for being fast, scalable, and easy to use. Its ability to allow users to perform blazing-fast vector search makes it a popular choice for large-scale RAG applications. Our initial infrastructure for Confident AI, the world’s first open-source evaluation infrastructure for LLMs, utilized Pinecone to cluster LLM observability log data in production. However, after weeks of experimentation, we made the decision to replace it entirely with pgvector. Pinecone’s simplistic design is deceptive due to several hidden complexities, particularly in integrating with existing data storage solutions. For example, it forces a complicated architecture and its restrictive metadata storage capacity made it troublesome for managing data-intensive workloads.
