diem-cli 0.1.4

Distributed Embeddings & Analytics Manager (DIEM) CLI for MariaDB Vector Engine

DIEM — Distributed Embedding and Analytics Manager

Introduction

---

DIEM is a CLI tool built using Python and the MariaDB SQL connector. It simplifies CRUD operations on vector embeddings and supports semantic search, cosine similarity, and other distance-based analytics.

The system leverages MariaDB 11.8 GA LTS! features such as Vector Data Type, Spider Engine .Together, these enable high-performance, distributed vector management and analytics.

Prequesites

Mariadb Db version 11.8 GA Lts (greater or 11.8)

Installation

Install using pip

pip install diemcli

Clone git repo

git clone https://github.com/NarmalaSk/DIEM.git

Connect to Mariadb

diem connect

Enter Connection String

Architecture

---

All database interactions are abstracted through DIEM.py, which translates SQL operations into intuitive CLI commands. This abstraction eliminates the need for manual SQL query handling, making vector data operations faster and more user-friendly.

Distributed System

---

DIEM automatically distributes vector data across the cluster using the MariaDB Spider Engine, ensuring:

Horizontal scalability

Load-balanced queries

Transparent data retrieval

Using DIEM CLI commands, developers can easily manage data distribution, replication, and query execution across nodes—without manually configuring Spider partitions or routes.

Integration in ML Model Development

---

DIEM bridges the gap between data storage and machine learning workflows by providing an efficient interface to:

Store and retrieve embeddings generated from ML models.

Perform semantic search for model evaluation and feature comparison.

Leverage MariaDB’s ColumnStore for analytics on large-scale vector datasets.

This makes DIEM an ideal choice for teams developing LLM-based applications, recommendation systems, and semantic similarity engines that need scalable, SQL-native vector management.
