MySQL-Vector
============

MySQL-Vector is a vector-search extension for MySQL. It lets MySQL
store vector values, build vector indexes, and run similarity search
through SQL for semantic search, recommendation, retrieval-augmented
generation, and multimodal workloads.

The vector branches provide:

* `VECTOR(dim)` columns in InnoDB tables.
* SQL vector functions such as `VEC_FROMTEXT()`, `VEC_DISTANCE()`, and
  `VEC_INDEX_SEARCH()`.
* Standalone named vector indexes and table-bound `CREATE VECTOR INDEX`
  syntax.
* HNSWLIB, Faiss, and DiskANN backend integration.
* Durable truth-store persistence, transaction integration, recovery,
  replication coverage, and observability surfaces.

Supported versions:

* MySQL 8.0.46:
