About LanceDB
LanceDB is a vector database you can embed directly in your application, much like SQLite. It stores data in the Lance format, which is built for AI workloads, including images, video and large embeddings alongside regular columns.
Because it runs in-process and reads from disk or object storage, it is cheap to operate and simple to set up. It supports full-text and vector search together, and a cloud version is available for scale.
LanceDB is open source and free to use. It is a nice fit for multimodal projects and teams that want to avoid running a separate database server.
