Data Sinks

Milvus

Milvus serves as a self-hosted vector store data sink for a LlamaCloud Index, storing document embeddings in a collection for retrieval.

Configure your own Milvus Vector DB instance as data sink.

milvus

from llama_cloud.types.data_sink_create_params import (
CloudMilvusVectorStore,
)
data_sink = client.data_sinks.create(
name="my-data-sink",
component=CloudMilvusVectorStore(
uri='<uri>',
collection_name='<collection_name>',
token='<token>', # optional
# embedding dimension
dim='<dim>' # optional
),
sink_type="MILVUS",
)
