TrustList summary

Zilliz Cloud is a fully managed vector database service from Zilliz, described on its home page as powered by Milvus. It is the commercial managed offering built on the Milvus open-source engine, which is licensed under Apache-2.0, whereas the service itself is proprietary. It is intended for teams that want to use Milvus without operating the database themselves, and it runs only as a managed cloud service rather than as software to install. Milvus was first published as a GitHub repository in 2019. No release version or release date is stated for the service. Pricing is not published in a form that could be read, so the cost of the service is not given here, and buyers should confirm current plans and charges directly on the Zilliz pricing page or with the vendor before committing. Anyone who wants to run the engine on their own hardware should look at the open-source Milvus project instead, which is free to self-host. Zilliz Cloud is the route for organisations that prefer to pay for a hosted service and leave the operation of the database to the vendor.
