For enterprise RAG and semantic search in production, which database architecture do you favor?
pgvector with HNSW indexing handles millions of embeddings inside existing Postgres clusters, while dedicated engines (Pinecone, Qdrant, Milvus) claim higher QPS.
Postgres + pgvector: keeping relational data, metadata filters, and embeddings in one ACID store wins
Zero data synchronization pipelines, single backup mechanism, and native SQL joins
Dedicated Vector DB (Qdrant / Milvus / Pinecone) for ultra-low latency and billion-scale indexing
Optimized SIMD kernels, distributed sharding, and native hybrid BM25 + dense search
Cloud-native search engines (OpenSearch / Elasticsearch / BigQuery Vector Search)
Leveraging existing enterprise search clusters and log aggregation infrastructure
In-memory caches & embedded vector engines (Redis / SQLite-vss) for localized fast retrieval
Microservice-local index with sub-millisecond retrieval times
Other / Different perspective
Hold an alternative architectural stance or distinct perspective
