--- draft: false id: 2 title: How vector search should be benchmarked? weight: 1 --- # Benchmarking Vector Databases At Qdrant, performance is the top-most priority. We always make sure that we use system resources efficiently so you get the **fastest and most accurate results at the cheapest cloud costs**. So all of our decisions from [choosing Rust](/articles/why-rust), [io optimisations](/articles/io_uring), [serverless support](/articles/serverless), [binary quantization](/articles/binary-quantization), to our [fastembed library](/articles/fastembed) are all based on our principle. In this article, we will compare how Qdrant performs against the other vector search engines. Here are the principles we followed while designing these benchmarks: - We do comparative benchmarks, which means we focus on **relative numbers** rather than absolute numbers. - We use affordable hardware, so that you can reproduce the results easily. - We run benchmarks on the same exact machines to avoid any possible hardware bias. - All the benchmarks are [open-sourced](https://github.com/qdrant/vector-db-benchmark), so you can contribute and improve them. <details> <summary> Scenarios we tested </summary> 1.

--- draft: false id: 4 title: Filtered search benchmark description: date: 2023-02-13 weight: 3 --- # Filtered search benchmark Applying filters to search results brings a whole new level of complexity. It is no longer enough to apply one algorithm to plain data. With filtering, it becomes a matter of the _cross-integration_ of the different indices. To measure how well different search engines perform in this scenario, we have prepared a set of **Filtered ANN Benchmark Datasets** - https://github.com/qdrant/ann-filtering-benchmark-datasets It is similar to the ones used in the [ann-benchmarks project](https://github.com/erikbern/ann-benchmarks/) but enriched with payload metadata and pre-generated filtering requests. It includes synthetic and real-world datasets with various filters, from keywords to geo-spatial queries. ### Why filtering is not trivial? Not many ANN algorithms are compatible with filtering. HNSW is one of the few of them, but search engines approach its integration in different ways: - Some use **post-filtering**, which applies filters after ANN search. It doesn't scale well as it either loses results or requires many candidates on the first stage. - Others use **pre-filtering**, which requires a binary mask of the whole dataset to be passed into the ANN algorithm. It is also not scalable, as the mask size grows linearly with the dataset size. On top of it, there is also a problem with search accuracy. It appears if too many vectors are filtered out, so the HNSW graph becomes disconnected. Qdrant uses a different approach, not requiring pre- or post-filtering while addressing the accuracy problem. Read more about the Qdrant approach in our [Filtrable HNSW](/articles/filtrable-hnsw/) article.

--- draft: false id: 1 title: Single node benchmarks description: | We benchmarked several vector databases using various configurations of them on different datasets to check how the results may vary. Those datasets may have different vector dimensionality but also vary in terms of the distance function being used. We also tried to capture the difference we can expect while using some different configuration parameters, for both the engine itself and the search operation separately. </br> </br> <b> Updated: January 2024 </b> single_node_title: Single node benchmarks single_node_data: /benchmarks/results-1-100-thread.json preview_image: /benchmarks/benchmark-1.png date: 2022-08-23 weight: 2 Unlisted: false --- ## Observations Most of the engines have improved since [our last run](/benchmarks/single-node-speed-benchmark-2022). Both life and software have trade-offs but some clearly do better: * **`Qdrant` achives highest RPS and lowest latencies in almost all the scenarios, no matter the precision threshold and the metric we choose.** It has also shown 4x RPS gains on one of the datasets. * `Elasticsearch` has become considerably fast for many cases but it's very slow in terms of indexing time. It can be 10x slower when storing 10M+ vectors of 96 dimensions! (32mins vs 5.5 hrs) * `Milvus` is the fastest when it comes to indexing time and maintains good precision. However, it's not on-par with others when it comes to RPS or latency when you have higher dimension embeddings or more number of vectors. * `Redis` is able to achieve good RPS but mostly for lower precision. It also achieved low latency with single thread, however its latency goes up quickly with more parallel requests. Part of this speed gain comes from their custom protocol. * `Weaviate` has improved the least since our last run. Because of relative improvements in other engines, it has become one of the slowest in terms of RPS as well as latency. ## How to read the results - Choose the dataset and the metric you want to check. - Select a precision threshold that would be satisfactory for your usecase. This is important because ANN search is all about trading precision for speed. This means in any vector search benchmark, **two results must be compared only when you have similar precision**. However most benchmarks miss this critical aspect. - The table is sorted by the value of the selected metric (RPS / Latency / p95 latency / Index time), and the first entry is always the winner of the category 🏆 ### Latency vs RPS In our benchmark we test two main search usage scenarios that arise in practice. - **Requests-per-Second (RPS)**: Serve more requests per second in exchange of individual requests taking longer (i.e. higher latency). This is a typical scenario for a web application, where multiple users are searching at the same time. To simulate this scenario, we run client requests in parallel with multiple threads and measure how many requests the engine can handle per second. - **Latency**: React quickly to individual requests rather than serving more requests in parallel. This is a typical scenario for applications where server response time is critical. Self-driving cars, manufacturing robots, and other real-time systems are good examples of such applications. To simulate this scenario, we run client in a single thread and measure how long each request takes. ### Tested datasets Our [benchmark tool](https://github.com/qdrant/vector-db-benchmark) is inspired by [github.com/erikbern/ann-benchmarks](https://github.com/erikbern/ann-benchmarks/). We used the following datasets to test the performance of the engines on ANN Search tasks: <div class="table-responsive"> | Datasets | # Vectors | Dimensions | Distance | |---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-----------|------------|-------------------| | [dbpedia-openai-1M-angular](https://huggingface.co/datasets/KShivendu/dbpedia-entities-openai-1M) | 1M | 1536 | cosine | | [deep-image-96-angular](http://sites.skoltech.ru/compvision/noimi/) | 10M | 96 | cosine | | [gist-960-euclidean](http://corpus-texmex.irisa.fr/) | 1M | 960 | euclidean | | [glove-100-angular](https://nlp.stanford.edu/projects/glove/) | 1.2M | 100 | cosine | </div> ### Setup {{< figure src=/benchmarks/client-server.png caption="Benchmarks configuration" width=70% >}} - This was our setup for this experiment: - Client: 8 vcpus, 16 GiB memory, 64GiB storage (`Standard D8ls v5` on Azure Cloud) - Server: 8 vcpus, 32 GiB memory, 64GiB storage (`Standard D8s v3` on Azure Cloud) - The Python client uploads data to the server, waits for all required indexes to be constructed, and then performs searches with configured number of threads. We repeat this process with different configurations for each engine, and then select the best one for a given precision. - We ran all the engines in docker and limited their memory to 25GB. This was used to ensure fairness by avoiding the case of some engine configs being too greedy with RAM usage. This 25 GB limit is completely fair because even to serve the largest `dbpedia-openai-1M-1536-angular` dataset, one hardly needs `1M * 1536 * 4bytes * 1.5 = 8.6GB` of RAM (including vectors + index). Hence, we decided to provide all the engines with ~3x the requirement. Please note that some of the configs of some engines crashed on some datasets because of the 25 GB memory limit. That's why you might see fewer points for some engines on choosing higher precision thresholds.

--- draft: false id: 3 title: Benchmarks F.A.Q. weight: 10 --- # Benchmarks F.A.Q. ## Are we biased? Probably, yes. Even if we try to be objective, we are not experts in using all the existing vector databases. We build Qdrant and know the most about it. Due to that, we could have missed some important tweaks in different vector search engines. However, we tried our best, kept scrolling the docs up and down, experimented with combinations of different configurations, and gave all of them an equal chance to stand out. If you believe you can do it better than us, our **benchmarks are fully [open-sourced](https://github.com/qdrant/vector-db-benchmark), and contributions are welcome**! ## What do we measure? There are several factors considered while deciding on which database to use. Of course, some of them support a different subset of functionalities, and those might be a key factor to make the decision. But in general, we all care about the search precision, speed, and resources required to achieve it. There is one important thing - **the speed of the vector databases should to be compared only if they achieve the same precision**. Otherwise, they could maximize the speed factors by providing inaccurate results, which everybody would rather avoid. Thus, our benchmark results are compared only at a specific search precision threshold. ## How we select hardware? In our experiments, we are not focusing on the absolute values of the metrics but rather on a relative comparison of different engines. What is important is the fact we used the same machine for all the tests. It was just wiped off between launching different engines. We selected an average machine, which you can easily rent from almost any cloud provider. No extra quota or custom configuration is required. ## Why you are not comparing with FAISS or Annoy? Libraries like FAISS provide a great tool to do experiments with vector search. But they are far away from real usage in production environments. If you are using FAISS in production, in the best case, you never need to update it in real-time. In the worst case, you have to create your custom wrapper around it to support CRUD, high availability, horizontal scalability, concurrent access, and so on. Some vector search engines even use FAISS under the hood, but a search engine is much more than just an indexing algorithm. We do, however, use the same benchmark datasets as the famous [ann-benchmarks project](https://github.com/erikbern/ann-benchmarks), so you can align your expectations for any practical reasons. ### Why we decided to test with the Python client There is no consensus when it comes to the best technology to run benchmarks. You’re free to choose Go, Java or Rust-based systems. But there are two main reasons for us to use Python for this: 1. While generating embeddings you're most likely going to use Python and python based ML frameworks. 2. Based on GitHub stars, python clients are one of the most popular clients across all the engines. From the user’s perspective, the crucial thing is the latency perceived while using a specific library - in most cases a Python client. Nobody can and even should redefine the whole technology stack, just because of using a specific search tool. That’s why we decided to focus primarily on official Python libraries, provided by the database authors. Those may use some different protocols under the hood, but at the end of the day, we do not care how the data is transferred, as long as it ends up in the target location. ## What about closed-source SaaS platforms? There are some vector databases available as SaaS only so that we couldn’t test them on the same machine as the rest of the systems. That makes the comparison unfair. That’s why we purely focused on testing the Open Source vector databases, so everybody may reproduce the benchmarks easily. This is not the final list, and we’ll continue benchmarking as many different engines as possible. ## How to reproduce the benchmark? The source code is available on [Github](https://github.com/qdrant/vector-db-benchmark) and has a `README.md` file describing the process of running the benchmark for a specific engine. ## How to contribute? We made the benchmark Open Source because we believe that it has to be transparent. We could have misconfigured one of the engines or just done it inefficiently.

--- draft: false id: 5 title: description: '<b> Updated: Feb 2023 </b>' filter_data: /benchmarks/filter-result-2023-02-03.json date: 2023-02-13 weight: 4 --- ## Filtered Results As you can see from the charts, there are three main patterns: - **Speed boost** - for some engines/queries, the filtered search is faster than the unfiltered one. It might happen if the filter is restrictive enough, to completely avoid the usage of the vector index. - **Speed downturn** - some engines struggle to keep high RPS, it might be related to the requirement of building a filtering mask for the dataset, as described above. - **Accuracy collapse** - some engines are loosing accuracy dramatically under some filters. It is related to the fact that the HNSW graph becomes disconnected, and the search becomes unreliable. Qdrant avoids all these problems and also benefits from the speed boost, as it implements an advanced [query planning strategy](/documentation/search/#query-planning). <aside role="status">The Filtering Benchmark is all about changes in performance between filter and un-filtered queries. Please refer to the search benchmark for absolute speed comparison.</aside>

Upon termination, Your right to use the Service will cease immediately. ### Limitation of Liability Notwithstanding any damages that You might incur, the entire liability of the Company and any of its suppliers under any provision of this Terms and Your exclusive remedy for all of the foregoing shall be limited to the amount actually paid by You through the Service or 100 USD if You haven't purchased anything through the Service. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall the Company or its suppliers be liable for any special, incidental, indirect, or consequential damages whatsoever (including, but not limited to, damages for loss of profits, loss of data or other information, for business interruption, for personal injury, loss of privacy arising out of or in any way related to the use of or inability to use the Service, third-party software and/or third-party hardware used with the Service, or otherwise in connection with any provision of this Terms), even if the Company or any supplier has been advised of the possibility of such damages and even if the remedy fails of its essential purpose. Some states do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties or limitation of liability for incidental or consequential damages, which means that some of the above limitations may not apply. In these states, each party's liability will be limited to the greatest extent permitted by law. ### "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" Disclaimer The Service is provided to You "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" and with all faults and defects without warranty of any kind. To the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, the Company, on its own behalf and on behalf of its Affiliates and its and their respective licensors and service providers, expressly disclaims all warranties, whether express, implied, statutory or otherwise, with respect to the Service, including all implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title and non-infringement, and warranties that may arise out of course of dealing, course of performance, usage or trade practice. Without limitation to the foregoing, the Company provides no warranty or undertaking, and makes no representation of any kind that the Service will meet Your requirements, achieve any intended results, be compatible or work with any other software, applications, systems or services, operate without interruption, meet any performance or reliability standards or be error free or that any errors or defects can or will be corrected. Without limiting the foregoing, neither the Company nor any of the company's provider makes any representation or warranty of any kind, express or implied: (i) as to the operation or availability of the Service, or the information, content, and materials or products included thereon; (ii) that the Service will be uninterrupted or error-free; (iii) as to the accuracy, reliability, or currency of any information or content provided through the Service; or (iv) that the Service, its servers, the content, or e-mails sent from or on behalf of the Company are free of viruses, scripts, trojan horses, worms, malware, timebombs or other harmful components. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain types of warranties or limitations on applicable statutory rights of a consumer, so some or all of the above exclusions and limitations may not apply to You. But in such a case the exclusions and limitations set forth in this section shall be applied to the greatest extent enforceable under applicable law. ### Governing Law The laws of the Country, excluding its conflicts of law rules, shall govern this Terms and Your use of the Service.
