    They are not killing the vector database or vector search. They are killing the vector-primary storage layout.

    The post itself says ANN becomes “just another” secondary index, and that v3 should make vector search faster along with text and regex.

    “RIP, vector-primary index” would have been accurate. “RIP, vector database” is marketing.
