TileDB
TileDB is a powerful engine for indexing and querying dense and sparse multi-dimensional arrays.
TileDB offers ANN search capabilities using the TileDB-Vector-Search module. It provides serverless execution of ANN queries and storage of vector indexes both on local disk and cloud object stores (i.e. AWS S3).

This notebook shows how to use the TileDB vector database.
%pip install --upgrade --quiet tiledb-vector-search langchain-community
Basic Example
from langchain_community.document_loaders import TextLoader
from langchain_community.vectorstores import TileDB
from langchain_huggingface import HuggingFaceEmbeddings
from langchain_text_splitters import CharacterTextSplitter
raw_documents = TextLoader("../../how_to/state_of_the_union.txt").load()
text_splitter = CharacterTextSplitter(chunk_size=1000, chunk_overlap=0)
documents = text_splitter.split_documents(raw_documents)
embeddings = HuggingFaceEmbeddings()
db = TileDB.from_documents(
documents, embeddings, index_uri="/tmp/tiledb_index", index_type="FLAT"
)
query = "What did the president say about Ketanji Brown Jackson"
docs = db.similarity_search(query)
docs[0].page_content
Similarity search by vector
embedding_vector = embeddings.embed_query(query)
docs = db.similarity_search_by_vector(embedding_vector)
docs[0].page_content
Similarity search with score
docs_and_scores = db.similarity_search_with_score(query)
docs_and_scores[0]
Maximal Marginal Relevance Search (MMR)
In addition to using similarity search in the retriever object, you can also use mmr as retriever.
retriever = db.as_retriever(search_type="mmr")
retriever.invoke(query)
Or use max_marginal_relevance_search directly:
db.max_marginal_relevance_search(query, k=2, fetch_k=10)
