📝 Guest Post: Introduction to DiskANN and the Vamana Algorithm*

In this tutorial, Frank Liu, Solutions Architect at Zilliz, will deep dive into DiskANN, a graph-based indexing strategy, their first foray into on-disk indexes. Like HNSW, DiskANN avoids the problem of figuring out how and where to partition a high-dimensional input space and instead relies on building a directed graph to the relationship between nearby vectors. As the volume of unstructured data continues to grow in the upcoming decade, the need for on-disk indexes will likely rise, as will research around this area. Let’s explore!
