Hi, great questions! Swirl currently uses the spaCy LLM for it similarity matching (the reranking of unified results lists from multiple sources).

If you mean connecting to various databases as content sources to search, yes, Swirl can do that (e.g. PostgreSQL as a source, etc.). Does that help?

Okay, but how does it handles indexing and query. Suppose we have a large database, what are the performance tradeoffs ? First you will do an SQL search to load data into Swirl ? Or is there something different?
