Sidecar vector-comparison integration

For databases which don't have their own vector-search implementation, Superduper offers 2 integrations:

  • In memory vector-search
  • Lance vector-search

To configure these, add one of the following options to your configuration:

cluster:
vector_search:
type: in_memory|lance

or

export SUPERDUPER_CLUSTER_VECTOR_SEARCH_TYPE='in_memory|lance'

In this case, whenever a developer executes a vector-search query including .like, execution of the similarity and sorting computations of vectors is outsourced to a sidecar implementation which is managed by superduper.
