Comment on Launch HN: Chonkie (YC X25) – Open-Source Library for Advanced Chunking

Comments

Congratulations for the launch!

You said that Chonkie works with multiple vector stores. I was wondering what RAG database HN uses? Do you need a specialized one (like Chroma) or is Postgres just fine?

Does HN even use a RAG database? What for? They don't even maintain their own search[0].

Not sure what HN uses :)

If you want agents/LLMs to be able to find relevant data based on similarity to queries, vectorDBs like Chroma (or even pgVector) are great.
