"Native and Efficient Vector Storage for Modern AI"
What do you like best about Milvus?

Native architecture for vectors

Specifically designed for large-scale vector storage and search, unlike traditional databases that are adapted.

Efficient support for dense and sparse embeddings, essential for modern AI models. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Milvus?

Operational and deployment complexity

Intricate distributed architecture: Multiple components (coordinators, workers, etc.) require separate configuration and monitoring.

Heavy infrastructure dependency: Need for Kubernetes or container orchestration for production deployment.

Limited standalone version: The "standalone" version is not suitable for production, only for testing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
