Overview
BagelDB is a collaborative platform where users can create, share, and manage vector datasets, functioning as 'the GitHub of Vector Embedding infrastructure'. Supports private projects for developers, internal collaborations for enterprises, and public contributions for data DAOs.
Technical Architecture
Three-Layer System
- Storage Layer: Leverages distributed storage networks (DSNs) for scalable data persistence
- Indexing Layer: Utilizes distributed Approximate Nearest Neighbors (ANN) indexing, primarily HNSW
- Query Processing Layer: Provides interface for efficient search and retrieval
Indexing Technology
- HNSW Algorithm: Hierarchical Navigable Small World
- Excellent trade-off between accuracy and performance
- Optimized for large-scale vector databases
- Distributed implementation for scale
