Jaguar Vector Database

  1. It is a distributed vector database
  2. The “ZeroMove” feature of JaguarDB enables instant horizontal scalability
  3. Multimodal: embeddings, text, images, videos, PDFs, audio, time series, and geospatial
  4. All-masters: allows both parallel reads and writes
  5. Anomaly detection capabilities
  6. RAG support: combines LLM with proprietary and real-time data
  7. Shared metadata: sharing of metadata across multiple vector indexes
  8. Distance metrics: Euclidean, Cosine, InnerProduct, Manhatten, Chebyshev, Hamming, Jeccard, Minkowski

Prerequisites​

There are two requirements for running the examples in this file.

  1. You must install and set up the JaguarDB server and its HTTP gateway server. Please refer to the instructions in: www.jaguardb.com For quick setup in docker environment: docker pull jaguardb/jaguardb_with_http docker run -d -p 8888:8888 -p 8080:8080 --name jaguardb_with_http jaguardb/jaguardb_with_http

  2. You must install the http client package for JaguarDB:

        pip install -U jaguardb-http-client

  3. You'll need to install langchain-community with pip install -qU langchain-community to use this integration

RAG With Langchain​

This section demonstrates chatting with LLM together with Jaguar in the langchain software stack.

Interaction With Jaguar Vector Store​

Users can interact directly with the Jaguar vector store for similarity search and anomaly detection.

from langchain_community.vectorstores.jaguar import Jaguar
from langchain_openai import OpenAIEmbeddings

# Instantiate a Jaguar vector store object
url = "http://192.168.3.88:8080/fwww/"
pod = "vdb"
store = "langchain_test_store"

vector_type = "cosine_fraction_float"
vector_dimension = 10
embeddings = OpenAIEmbeddings()
vectorstore = Jaguar(
    pod, store, vector_index, vector_type, vector_dimension, url, embeddings
)

# Login for authorization
vectorstore.login()

# Create the vector store with two metadata fields
# This needs to be run only once.
metadata_str = "author char(32), category char(16)"
vectorstore.create(metadata_str, 1024)

# Add a list of texts
texts = ["foo", "bar", "baz"]
metadatas = [
    {"author": "Adam", "category": "Music"},
    {"author": "Eve", "category": "Music"},
    {"author": "John", "category": "History"},
]
ids = vectorstore.add_texts(texts=texts, metadatas=metadatas)

#  Search similar text
output = vectorstore.similarity_search(
    query="foo",
    k=1,
    metadatas=["author", "category"],
)
assert output[0].page_content == "foo"

assert output[0].metadata["category"] == "Music"
assert len(output) == 1
