Atlas Vector Search vs ChromaDB

Laura_Fernandez · 2024-07-22T07:50:20.530Z

Hi, I would like to know if it exists a comparative between Atlas Vector Search and other Vector Search Database, such as ChromaDB.
I also like to know it Atlas support multimodal search for RAG approaches. (🖼️ Multimodal | Chroma Docs).
Thanks in advance!!

Hi @Laura_Fernandez,

For a quick comparison, you can check out the 2024 Retool State of AI report:
https://retool.com/blog/reports/state-of-ai-h1-2024?utm_source=blog&utm_medium=owned_content&utm_term=ai#vector-d-bs-are-on-the-rise (also linked in Retool State Of AI Report: "MongoDB Vector Search Most Loved Vector Database").
This isn’t exactly a technical comparison, but it’s a good reference for usage popularity and preference.

thanks @Azri !! I will look for more reports. I was concerced about retrieval properties when building RAG solutions in comparison to ChromaDB. Do you know if is there a great difference between them?
Thanks again!

Apologies, I’m not able to answer that.

Hi @Harshad_Dhavale, I saw your guide on RAG here: RAG with Atlas Vector Search, LangChain, and OpenAI | MongoDB
Wondering if you could help here.
