Public Preview: Gravix Layer is currently in Public preview. Features are experimental and may have issues or break as ongoing updates to API endpoint and models continue.
Overview
Vector database operations allow you to:- Create Indexes: Set up vector collections with specific dimensions, metrics, and cloud deployment options
- Multi-Cloud Support: Deploy indexes on AWS, GCP, Azure, or Gravix cloud infrastructure
- Serverless & Dedicated: Choose between serverless (auto-scaling) or dedicated (fixed resources) index types
- Upsert Vectors: Store and update vectors with metadata
- Search Vectors: Perform similarity searches using vectors or text
- Manage Vectors: List, retrieve, update, and delete vectors
- Batch Operations: Efficiently delete multiple vectors at once
- Text-to-Vector: Convert text to vectors using embedding models
