-----------------
The article discusses the trend of every database eventually offering some form of vector search, blurring the distinction between vector databases and other types of databases. This convergence trend may lead to a slowdown in growth for startup vector database companies. The comments discuss the challenges and benefits of combining traditional databases with vector databases, including the need for optimized implementation, the maintenance of separate databases, and the efficiency and cost-effectiveness compared to optimizing existing scalar databases. There is also a discussion on the limitations and advantages of different indexing methods for vectors, as well as the history and hype surrounding NoSQL databases.
