Vectorize is Cloudflare's vector database for building AI-powered apps on its Workers platform. It stores and queries embeddings for semantic search, recommendation, classification, and RAG, and cross-references results against data in R2, D1, and KV. Embeddings can come from Workers AI or external providers like OpenAI, and indexes are configured via the dashboard, Wrangler CLI, or REST API.

Pros & cons

  • Native to Cloudflare Workers and edge
  • Free tier on Workers Free/Paid plans
  • Tight Workers AI + R2/D1/KV integration
  • No infrastructure to manage
  • Low-latency queries from the edge
  • Tied to the Cloudflare ecosystem
  • Fewer index/algorithm knobs than dedicated DBs
  • 5M vectors-per-index ceiling
  • Younger than standalone vector databases

    Managed vector database. The industry-default serverless option.

    Fully-managed vector DB built for production RAG and semantic search at scale. Serverless pricing, low-latency reads, integrations across every framework. Most Blokz-adjacent AI teams reach for it first.

    Worth knowing

    Founded in 2019 by Edo Liberty, formerly head of Amazon AI Labs; raised a $100M Series B at a $750M valuation in 2023.

    Object-storage-backed vector DB. Serverless economics at scale.

    Bills like S3 — cold rest, warm reads, no per-namespace minimums. Designed for very-large, mostly-cold vector workloads where you can't justify keeping every index in RAM. Operated by Notion in production.

    Worth knowing

    Built by two ex-Shopify engineers; it reached a ~$100M run-rate powering Cursor and Notion having raised under $1M.

    Amazon S3 Vectors

    Amazon Web Services

    Native vector storage and querying in S3 — serverless, billion-vector scale.

    Purpose-built vector storage inside Amazon S3: store and query up to two billion vectors per index across thousands of indexes per vector bucket, with S3's durability and elasticity and no clusters to manage. Frequent queries return in around 100ms and infrequent ones in under a second, and it plugs directly into Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Bases for RAG. You pay only for storage and queries.

    Worth knowing

    The first cloud object store with native vector support; its preview ingested 40B+ vectors before GA in December 2025.
