Vespa
The AI Search Platform for fast, accurate and large scale RAG

Vespa is an open-source AI search platform that supports vector, text, and structured data search at massive scale. It enables use cases like RAG, personalization, recommendation, and e-commerce navigation by combining hybrid search with distributed machine-learned model inference. The platform is designed to handle billions of data items with sub-100ms query latencies.
Vespa indexes vectors, tensors, text, and structured data and applies distributed machine-learned ranking at query time to deliver highly relevant results at any scale.
