Qdrant 1.8.0 is out!


This time around, we have focused on Qdrant's internals. Our goal was to optimize performance, so that your existing setup can run faster and save on compute. Here is what we've been up to:




  • Faster sparse vectors: Hybrid search is up to 16x faster now!


  • CPU resource management: You can allocate CPU threads for faster indexing.


  • Better indexing performance: We optimized text indexing on the backend.





Faster search with sparse vectors


Search throughput is now up …
