Why Qdrant is interesting

Production AI systems require fast, composable similarity search — over embeddings, sparse vectors, and hybrid filters — at latencies and costs most general-purpose databases struggle to meet. - RAG and agentic workloads have made vector search a default component in AI architectures. - Open-weight models + open-source vector DBs let European teams avoid U.S. SaaS lock-in. - GDPR-aligned, on-prem, and hybrid deployment options matter materially in the EU. Qdrant's AVP-led Series B positions Berlin as a credible European hub for AI data infrastructure — and vector search as a core production primitive.
