Description

Now generally available in Azure Cosmos DB for NoSQL, vector search enables your applications to perform high-dimensional vector similarity searches. You can take advantage of advanced AI scenarios including semantic search, Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG), semantic caching, and anomaly detection. This release also improves performance, including faster vector ingestion and lower search latencies, and offers compatibility with popular Azure Cosmos DB for NoSQL capabilities, such as customer-managed keys, continuous backup, point-in-time restore, and Fabric mirroring. Operational and vector data stays together and in sync, simplifying your data management, AI application architectures, and vector-based operations.
