Curious about how your solution is different / better than nmslib which I've tried in the past?

We actually use HNSWLIB by NMSLIB on the backend. NMSLIB is solving the approximate nearest neighbor problem, not the storage problem. It’s not a database, it’s an index. We handle everything needed to turn their index into a full fledged database with a data science workflow around it (versioning, monitoring, etc.)
