# Qdrant

### Vector search engine for semantic retrieval-augmented generation (RAG).

> STD.DEV deploys Qdrant as a high-performance vector search engine for semantic retrieval-augmented generation (RAG).

**STD.DEV deploys Qdrant to power high-performance vector search and semantic retrieval pipelines.** By storing high-dimensional embeddings generated by transformer models, Qdrant allows applications to perform exact and approximate nearest neighbor (ANN) search, forming the memory bank for advanced AI reasoning.

### Vector Search & ANN

Qdrant is optimized to execute semantic similarity queries over millions of high-dimensional vectors in milliseconds. STD.DEV configures robust distance metrics (such as Cosine, Dot Product, and Euclidean distance) to match queries to the most relevant stored documents.

### Payload Filtering

With support for rich payload JSON filtering, Qdrant allows STD.DEV to run hybrid queries that combine semantic vector similarity with strict metadata rules (like user permissions, categories, or date ranges) without sacrificing performance.

### RAG Engine Memory

Qdrant functions as the core knowledge retriever for SCORE Genkit AI systems. When agents require factual, context-aware information, they query Qdrant to retrieve relevant text segments and dynamically inject them into the LLM context.
