About Zilliz
We provide vector database technology for enterprise-grade AI applications. We were founded in 2017 by the engineers behind Milvus, an open-source vector database.
Our main product, Zilliz Cloud, is a fully managed Milvus service. It’s designed for billion-scale vector search and simplifies deploying and scaling vector search applications by managing the complex infrastructure. Zilliz Cloud integrates with AI models and frameworks like OpenAI, Anthropic, Cohere, Langchain, and LlamaIndex. We support AWS, Azure, and GCP across eight global regions.
Our technology is built for performance and scalability. We optimize Milvus with AUTOINDEX for efficiency and use the Cardinal search engine for 10x faster retrieval, handling over 100 billion items. We guarantee 99.95% monthly uptime and meet SOC2 Type II and ISO27001 standards. Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) protects your data. We also provide built-in embedding pipelines to convert unstructured data into searchable vector embeddings.
Our vector databases are used for applications like Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG), recommender systems, text/semantic search, image, audio, video, and multimodal similarity search, AI agents, and molecular similarity search.
