| Core feature | Description |
|---|---|
| Vector data types |
|
| Vector index |
|
| Vector search SQL operators | Supports basic operators for vector addition, subtraction, multiplication, comparison, and aggregation. |
Limitations and considerations
- By default, OceanBase Database uses the nullsFirst comparison mode, in which NULL values are placed first during sorting. We recommend that you add a
NOT NULLcondition in queries. - OceanBase Database Community Edition and Desktop Edition allow you to use vector search in the SYS tenant.
