Configuration

HTTP Configuration (Default)

from vectorizer import VectorizerClient

# Default HTTP configuration
client = VectorizerClient(
    base_url="http://localhost:15002",
    api_key="your-api-key",
    timeout=30
)

UMICP Configuration (High Performance)

UMICP (Universal Messaging and Inter-process Communication Protocol) provides significant performance benefits using the official umicp-python package.

Using Connection String

from vectorizer import VectorizerClient

client = VectorizerClient(
    connection_string="umicp://localhost:15003",
    api_key="your-api-key"
)

print(f"Using protocol: {client.get_protocol()}")  # Output: umicp

Using Explicit Configuration

from vectorizer import VectorizerClient

client = VectorizerClient(
    protocol="umicp",
    api_key="your-api-key",
    umicp={
        "host": "localhost",
        "port": 15003
    },
    timeout=60
)

When to Use UMICP

Use UMICP when:

• Large Payloads: Inserting or searching large batches of vectors
• High Throughput: Need maximum performance for production workloads
• Low Latency: Need minimal protocol overhead

Use HTTP when:

• Development: Quick testing and debugging
• Firewall Restrictions: Only HTTP/HTTPS allowed
• Simple Deployments: No need for custom protocol setup

Protocol Comparison

Feature	HTTP/HTTPS	UMICP
Transport	aiohttp (standard HTTP)	umicp-python package
Performance	Standard	Optimized for large payloads
Latency	Standard	Lower overhead
Firewall	Widely supported	May require configuration
Installation	Default	Requires umicp-python

Installing with UMICP Support

pip install vectorizer-sdk umicp-python

Master/Slave Configuration (Read/Write Separation)

Vectorizer supports Master-Replica replication for high availability and read scaling. The SDK provides automatic routing - writes go to master, reads are distributed across replicas.

Basic Setup

from vectorizer import VectorizerClient

# Configure with master and replicas - SDK handles routing automatically
client = VectorizerClient(
    hosts={
        "master": "http://master-node:15001",
        "replicas": ["http://replica1:15001", "http://replica2:15001"]
    },
    api_key="your-api-key",
    read_preference="replica"  # "master" | "replica" | "nearest"
)

# Writes automatically go to master
await client.create_collection("documents", dimension=768)
await client.insert_texts("documents", [
    {"id": "doc1", "text": "Sample document", "metadata": {"source": "api"}}
])
await client.update_vector("documents", "doc1", metadata={"updated": True})
await client.delete_vector("documents", "doc1")

# Reads automatically go to replicas (load balanced)
results = await client.search_vectors("documents", query="sample", limit=10)
collections = await client.list_collections()
vector = await client.get_vector("documents", "doc1")

Read Preferences

Preference	Description	Use Case
"replica"	Route reads to replicas (round-robin)	Default for high read throughput
"master"	Route all reads to master	When you need read-your-writes consistency
"nearest"	Route to the node with lowest latency	Geo-distributed deployments

Read-Your-Writes Consistency

For operations that need to immediately read what was just written:

# Option 1: Override read preference for specific operation
await client.insert_texts("docs", [new_doc])
result = await client.get_vector("docs", new_doc["id"], read_preference="master")

# Option 2: Use context manager for a block of operations
async with client.with_master() as master_client:
    await master_client.insert_texts("docs", [new_doc])
    result = await master_client.get_vector("docs", new_doc["id"])

Automatic Operation Routing

The SDK automatically classifies operations:

Operation Type	Routed To	Methods
Writes	Always Master	insert_texts, insert_vectors, update_vector, delete_vector, create_collection, delete_collection
Reads	Based on read_preference	search_vectors, get_vector, list_collections, intelligent_search, semantic_search, hybrid_search

Standalone Mode (Single Node)

For development or single-node deployments, use the simple configuration:

# Single node - no replication
client = VectorizerClient(
    base_url="http://localhost:15001",
    api_key="your-api-key"
)
