About Faiss
Faiss is a library for efficient similarity search and clustering of dense vectors. It contains algorithms that search in sets of vectors of any size, up to ones that possibly do not fit in RAM. It also contains supporting code for evaluation and parameter tuning.
Faiss is written in C++ with complete wrappers for Python. Some of the most useful algorithms are implemented on the GPU. It is developed by Facebook AI Research.
LlamaIndex
LlamaIndex is a “data framework” to help you build LLM apps. Connect semi-structured data from API's like Slack, Salesforce, Notion, etc. LlamaIndex is a simple, flexible data framework for connecting custom data sources to large language models. LlamaIndex provides the key tools to augment your LLM applications with data. Connect your existing data sources and data formats (API's, PDF's, documents, SQL, etc.) to use with a large language model application. Store and index your data for different use cases. Integrate with downstream vector store and database providers. LlamaIndex provides a query interface that accepts any input prompt over your data and returns a knowledge-augmented response. Connect unstructured sources such as documents, raw text files, PDF's, videos, images, etc. Easily integrate structured data sources from Excel, SQL, etc. Provides ways to structure your data (indices, graphs) so that this data can be easily used with LLMs.

LanceDB
LanceDB is a developer-friendly, open source database for AI. From hyperscalable vector search and advanced retrieval for RAG to streaming training data and interactive exploration of large-scale AI datasets, LanceDB is the best foundation for your AI application. Installs in seconds and fits seamlessly into your existing data and AI toolchain. An embedded database (think SQLite or DuckDB) with native object storage integration, LanceDB can be deployed anywhere and easily scales to zero when not in use. From rapid prototyping to hyper-scale production, LanceDB delivers blazing-fast performance for search, analytics, and training for multimodal AI data. Leading AI companies have indexed billions of vectors and petabytes of text, images, and videos, at a fraction of the cost of other vector databases. More than just embedding. Filter, select, and stream training data directly from object storage to keep GPU utilization high.

Weaviate
Weaviate is an open-source vector database. It allows you to store data objects and vector embeddings from your favorite ML-models, and scale seamlessly into billions of data objects. Whether you bring your own vectors or use one of the vectorization modules, you can index billions of data objects to search through. Combine multiple search techniques, such as keyword-based and vector search, to provide state-of-the-art search experiences. Improve your search results by piping them through LLM models like GPT-3 to create next-gen search experiences. Beyond search, Weaviate's next-gen vector database can power a wide range of innovative apps. Perform lightning-fast pure vector similarity search over raw vectors or data objects, even with filters. Combine keyword-based search with vector search techniques for state-of-the-art results. Use any generative model in combination with your data, for example to do Q&A over your dataset.
