Summary

This release introduces server-side namespace querying and new indexing capabilities, alongside critical breaking changes deprecating macOS x86 support and refactoring namespace operations.

⚠️ Breaking Changes

  • Support for macOS x86 architecture has been deprecated. Users on this platform should migrate to supported architectures.
  • Namespace operations now use namespace models directly. Code relying on previous namespace operation patterns may need updates.

Migration Steps

  1. If using macOS x86, plan migration to a supported architecture.
  2. Review code utilizing namespace operations to align with the direct use of namespace models.

✨ New Features

  • Added support for server-side querying of namespaces.
  • Introduced support for IVF SQ indexing and added aliases for HNSW indexing.

🐛 Bug Fixes

  • Resolved an error related to retrieving table names when operating in the root namespace.
