Best For
Production RAG and agent memory at scale — serverless billing, generous free tier, and a managed experience with zero ops
High-performance vector search with rich payload filtering — Rust-written, predictable latency, and a clean self-hosted path
Limitations
Cloud-only with no self-hosted option; vendor lock-in on proprietary index format; advanced features like dedicated read nodes add cost quickly at scale
No built-in embedding generation — bring your own embeddings; managed cloud is younger than Pinecone's; fewer turnkey RAG modules than Weaviate
