Lakebase Search
Postgres extensions that add an approximate nearest-neighbour index (lakebase_ann) and BM25 keyword ranking (lakebase_bm25) inside Lakebase.
Why it is worth watching
Vector and keyword search in the same query as the rows they belong to, without a second system. Enabling it on a project cannot be undone.
