There was a similar situation in a project I worked on, at the time FAISS/Annoy/SPTAG were considered but we were really looking for something more managed, think ElasticSearch rather than Lucene. As luck would have it we stumbled upon https://www.milvus.io/ and it certainly checks a lot of boxes. But I'm rather excited to see some competition in this space, it's a broadly applicable trick so I'll definitely take a look at Vald next time it comes up as well!

We recognize that Milvus is a strong competitor and we think Milvus is a great platform. Like Milvus, Vald will soon be sending pull requests to ann-benchmarks to show that it is one of the fastest ANN engines available over the network.
