What is the difference between Databricks Vector Search and Mosaic AI Vector Search?

As I understand it, the core features of Databricks Vector Search have been integrated into Mosaic AI Vector Search. Does that mean Databricks Vector Search is a deprecated version of Mosaic AI?

Could someone help me understand the differences and advise on which one to use in different scenarios?

Hi @longht, it’s essentially the same product, just rebranded as part of the Mosaic AI suite. 'Databricks Vector Search' is now more of a historical term, while Mosaic AI Vector Search is the actively supported and for any new or existing project, Mosaic AI Vector Search is the way to go.

+1 It is the same product. Plus, Databricks released a new offering, storage-optimized Vector Search. See here
