Milvus: Scaling Vector Data Solutions with Gen AI - Stephen Batifol, Zilliz

Milvus, an LF AI project, is an open-source vector database built to power Gen AI solutions. 80% of the data in the world is unstructured data, and vector databases are the databases that help you get valuable insights from unstructured data. With this in mind, we built Milvus as a distributed system on top of other open-source solutions, including MinIO and Kafka, to support vector collections that exceed billion-scale. This session will deeply dive into the architecture decisions that make this cloud-native vector database seamlessly scale horizontally, provide users with tunable consistency, orchestrate in-memory and on-disk indexing, and scalable search strategies
