Cloud-native distributed vector search engine built for Kubernetes with automatic indexing and horizontal scaling.
Vald is a highly scalable distributed approximate nearest neighbor (ANN) vector search engine designed for cloud-native, Kubernetes-based architectures. Maintained by LY Corporation and listed in the CNCF Landscape, it uses the NGT algorithm (developed at Yahoo Japan), supports automatic incremental index backup, and handles billion-scale datasets across loosely coupled microservice components that scale horizontally via Helm.
