Redis Vector — Vector Databases Platform

Redis offers vector search capabilities through Redis Cloud (fully managed), Redis Software (self-managed), and Redis Open Source, with the Redis Vector Library (RedisVL) simplifying working with vectors in Redis. Unlike dedicated vector databases, Redis offers multi-modal capabilities—handling vector search, real-time caching, feature storage, and pub/sub messaging in a single system, eliminating the need for multiple tools and reducing complexity and cost. Redis supports HNSW (Hierarchical Navigable Small World) for fast approximate nearest neighbor (ANN) search and Flat indexing for exact search. Vector search lives alongside caching, sessions, and messaging in one platform, with data staying in memory with no network hops between systems, enabling core operations to run at sub-millisecond latency. Founded in 2011 and headquartered in San Francisco (relocated from Mountain View in 2024), Redis serves enterprises across multiple industries with proven performance at scale.
