Yes, I’m the founder and maintainer of the Milvus project, and also a big fan of many AWS projects, including S3, Lambda, and Aurora. Personally, I don’t consider S3Vector to be among the best products in the S3 ecosystem, though I was impressed by its excellent latency control. It’s not particularly fast, nor is it feature-rich, but it seems to embody S3’s design philosophy: being “good enough” for certain scenarios.
In contrast, the products I’ve built usually push for extreme scalability and high performance. Beyond Milvus, I’ve also been deeply involved in the development of HBase and Oracle products. I hope more people will dive into the underlying implementation of S3Vector—this kind of discussion could greatly benefit both the search and storage communities and accelerate their growth.
