REST Server for CyborgDB: The Confidential Vector Database

CyborgDB Service

A FastAPI-based REST API wrapper for CyborgDB, providing Confidential Vector DB capabilities over HTTP. It enables you to ingest & search vectors embeddings in a privacy-preserving manner, without revealing the contents of the vectors themselves. CyborgDB works with existing DBs (e.g., Postgres, Redis) and enables you to add, query and retrieve vector embeddings with transparent end-to-end encryption.

Features

• End-to-End Encryption: Vector embeddings remain encrypted throughout their lifecycle, including at search time
• Zero-Trust Design: Novel architecture keeps confidential inference data secure
• High Performance: GPU-accelerated indexing and retrieval with CUDA support (configurable per operation)
• Familiar API: Easy integration with existing AI workflows
• Multiple Backing Stores: Works with PostgreSQL, Redis, and in-memory storage
• Cloud Ready: Supports AWS RDS, AWS ElastiCache, Azure Database for PostgreSQL, Azure Cache for Redis, Google Cloud SQL, and Google Cloud Memorystore

Installation

1. Install cyborgdb-service

# Install the CyborgDB Service
pip install cyborgdb-service

2. Set environment variables

export CYBORGDB_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
export CYBORGDB_DB_TYPE='redis|postgres'
export CYBORGDB_CONNECTION_STRING=your_connection_string_here

# Optional: Configure GPU operations (none, upsert, train, query, all)
# Default is 'none' (CPU only)
export GPU_OPERATIONS='all'             # Enable GPU for all operations
# Or specify specific operations:
# export GPU_OPERATIONS='upsert,train'  # Enable GPU only for upsert and training
# export GPU_OPERATIONS='query'         # Enable GPU only for queries

For connection string examples run cyborgdb-service --help

2. Run the server

cyborgdb-service

API Key Configuration

You need to provide your API key using any of these methods:

Method 1: Environment Variable (Easiest)

export CYBORGDB_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
cyborgdb-service

Method 2: .env File

Create a .env file in the project root:

CYBORGDB_API_KEY=your_api_key_here

Then run:

cyborgdb-service

Method 3: Inline with Launch
