Blazing-fast vector storage with IVF_PQ indexing, batch processing, and Windows optimizations. Built for semantic search applications requiring sub-20ms P99 latency on 50k+ vectors.
Most vector database wrappers focus on basic CRUD operations. This library provides:
- Batch Optimization: Configurable batch sizes with timeout-based flushing for efficient I/O
- IVF_PQ Index Configuration: Pre-tuned settings for Windows with 500 vectors/partition targeting <20ms P99
- Async Embedding Queue: Non-blocking embedding generation with retry logic and backpressure handling
- Retention Policies: Built-in data lifecycle management with archive/delete modes
- Ollama Integration: Optional embedding generation via local LLM

For high-throughput scenarios, use batch operations:
// Create batch store with optimizations
batchConfig := vector.DefaultBatchConfig()
batchStore, err := vector.NewBatchStore(config, batchConfig)
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
// Batch store (auto-flushes when batch is full or timeout)
for i := 0; i < 1000; i++ {
embedding := generateEmbedding()
batchStore.StoreBatched(fmt.Sprintf("doc_%d", i), embedding)
}
// Get batch statistics
stats := batchStore.GetBatchStats()
fmt.Printf("Current batch: %d/%d\n", stats.CurrentBatchSize, stats.MaxBatchSize)Generate embeddings asynchronously without blocking:
// Queue text for embedding generation
store.QueueEmbedding("doc_1", "This is the document text to embed")
// Start processing queue (call once)
store.ProcessQueue()
// Check if Ollama is available
if store.IsOllamaAvailable() {
fmt.Println("Ollama ready for embedding generation")
