Basic Information

HyperDB is a hyper-fast local vector database designed to store and query document embeddings for use with large language model agents. The README states it provides a simple, agent-compatible interface and is intended to be used as a local backend for LLM-driven workflows. The project ships a highly optimized C++ backend vector store with hardware-accelerated operations via MKL BLAS. It enables users to index arbitrary documents, attach ids and metadata, persist databases to disk, and run similarity queries. The package is published on PyPI as hyperdb-python and can optionally use sentence-transformers for local embedding generation. The README includes a concrete Python usage example that shows creating a HyperDB instance from a JSONL document set, saving and loading a compressed database file, and running top-k queries to retrieve matching entries.

App Details

Features
Simple Python interface compatible with large language model agents and intended to plug into agent workflows. High-performance C++ backend vector store with hardware acceleration via Intel MKL BLAS for fast linear algebra operations. Document indexing that supports ids and metadata fields so entries can be organized and retrieved with contextual information. Persistence APIs demonstrated in the README include saving to and loading from a compressed pickle file. Query functionality supports text queries with top_k results. Optional integration with sentence-transformers is documented for generating local embeddings. The README includes an end-to-end example using a demo JSONL dataset, illustrating instantiation, save/load, and query semantics.
Use Cases
HyperDB provides a compact, high-performance local vector store that speeds up retrieval tasks used by LLM agents. By offering a simple, agent-friendly API and fast C++ backed similarity search, it reduces latency for embedding-based lookups and makes it straightforward to index documents with ids and metadata for later retrieval. Persistence via save and load lets users build offline or reproducible datasets and share prebuilt databases. The optional sentence-transformers dependency lets users create embeddings locally without requiring remote embedding services. The included example shows how to load documents, construct a database, persist it, and run top-k queries, making it practical for prototyping or integrating a local vector store into LLM agent pipelines.
