What is the main benefit of using the Vector Index Tuning skill?

It helps developers maximize retrieval accuracy (recall) while minimizing memory usage and search latency in high-scale vector search environments and RAG applications.

Does this skill support specific vector databases?

Yes, it includes detailed configuration templates for Qdrant and general implementation patterns for HNSW-based libraries like hnswlib and FAISS.

Can I use this skill to implement vector quantization?

Absolutely. It provides ready-to-use code for Scalar (INT8), Product Quantization (PQ), and Binary quantization to significantly reduce your vector storage memory footprint.

How do I determine the right index for my dataset size?

The skill includes a specialized index selection matrix that recommends specific types—from Flat and HNSW to IVF and DiskANN—based on your total vector count and performance requirements.
