## What is Milvus?
2021-08-25 08:17:08 +08:00
Milvus is an open-source vector database built to power embedding similarity search and AI applications. Milvus makes unstructured data search more accessible, and provides a consistent user experience regardless of the deployment environment.
Milvus 2.0 is a cloud-native vector database with storage and computation separated by design. All components in this refactored version of Milvus are stateless to enhance elasticity and flexibility. For more architecture details, see [Milvus Architecture Overview](https://milvus.io/docs/architecture_overview.md).
Milvus was released under the [open-source Apache License 2.0](https://github.com/milvus-io/milvus/blob/master/LICENSE) in October 2019. It is currently a graduate project under [LF AI & Data Foundation](https://lfaidata.foundation/).
## Key features
<details>
<summary><b>Millisecond search on trillion vector datasets</b></summary>
Average latency measured in milliseconds on trillion vector datasets.
</details>
<details>
<summary><b>Simplified unstructured data management</b></summary>
<li>Rich APIs designed for data science workflows.</li><li>Consistent user experience across laptop, local cluster, and cloud.</li><li>Embed real-time search and analytics into virtually any application.</li>
</details>
<details>
<summary><b>Reliable, always on vector database</b></summary>
Milvus built-in replication and failover/failback features ensure data and applications can maintain business continuity in the event of a disruption.
</details>
<details>
<summary><b>Highly scalable and elastic</b></summary>
Component-level scalability makes it possible to scale up and down on demand. Milvus can autoscale at a component level according to the load type, making resource scheduling much more efficient.
</details>
<details>
<summary><b>Hybrid search</b></summary>
In addition to vectors, Milvus supports data types such as Boolean, integers, floating-point numbers, and more. A collection in Milvus can hold multiple fields for accommodating different data features or properties. Milvus pairs scalar filtering with powerful vector similarity search to offer a modern, flexible platform for analyzing unstructured data. Check https://github.com/milvus-io/milvus/wiki/Hybrid-Search for examples and boolean expression rules.
</details>
<details>
<summary><b>Unified Lambda structure</b></summary>
Milvus combines stream and batch processing for data storage to balance timeliness and efficiency. Its unified interface makes vector similarity search a breeze.
</details>
<details>
<summary><b>Community supported, industry recognized</b></summary>
With over 1,000 enterprise users, 8,000+ stars on GitHub, and an active open-source community, youre not alone when you use Milvus. As a graduate project under the <a href="https://lfaidata.foundation/">LF AI & Data Foundation</a>, Milvus has institutional support.
