Announcing vector sets, a new Redis data type for vector similarity

Redis has introduced vector sets, a new data type designed for vector similarity, in its Redis 8 Community Edition. Vector sets are inspired by sorted sets and allow the storage and querying of high-dimensional vector embeddings crucial for various AI and machine learning applications. They offer a simple and intuitive API, reflecting Redis's philosophy of delivering high-performance solutions with minimal complexity. Vector sets can be used to store and retrieve vector embeddings for text descriptions or images, enabling efficient similarity searches. The new data type complements the existing powerful vector search in Redis (Redis Query Engine) and provides a lightweight alternative for specific use-cases. Redis now offers two complementary search capabilities: the Redis Query Engine for comprehensive searching and the vector set for specialized vector similarity search.
