Best 3 Tools for Performing Vector Search in 2025
Enable similarity-based vector search to power recommendation systems, semantic retrieval, and AI-driven content discovery.
Qdrant
Qdrant
Qdrant is a vector database that stores and searches high-dimensional data using advanced technology. Unlike traditional databases that store exact text or numbers, Qdrant works with vectors—mathematical representations of complex information. This makes it perfect for finding similar items based on meaning rather than exact matches.
Weaviate
Weaviate
Weaviate is a database designed specifically for AI applications that need to understand the meaning behind data. Unlike regular databases that only match exact words, Weaviate can find information based on what you mean, not just what you type.
Milvus
Milvus
Milvus is a database specifically built to store and search vector embeddings. When you use AI models to process text, images, or other data, they create numerical vectors that represent the meaning of that data. Milvus organizes these vectors so you can quickly find similar items.
