About Qdrant

A vector search engine for storing, searching, and managing high-dimensional vector embeddings.

Qdrant is a vector database and search engine designed for applications that need to find similar items based on vector representations — such as semantic search, recommendation systems, and similarity matching. It stores collections of vectors alongside optional payload data and exposes APIs for querying nearest neighbors. It can be self-hosted via Docker or used as a managed service.

Where to start

Run Qdrant locally with Docker, then use the JavaScript REST client or another supported client to create a collection and start upserting and querying vectors against the REST API.
