I would like to request support for a managed Milvus vector database offering on DigitalOcean. Milvus has become one of the leading open source vector databases for AI and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) workloads. Many developers and companies are increasingly using vector search for semantic search, AI assistants, recommendation systems, document retrieval, and multimodal AI applications. A managed Milvus service on DigitalOcean would provide significant value for teams building AI-native applications, especially those already using DigitalOcean Kubernetes, Spaces, and GPU infrastructure. Key capabilities that would be valuable include: * Fully managed Milvus deployment * Automated scaling and upgrades * Persistent storage integration * High availability and backups * Private networking and VPC support * S3-compatible object storage integration * Monitoring and metrics * Secure authentication and role management * Compatibility with embedding-based AI workflows and RAG architectures There is growing demand for vector database infrastructure, and adding managed Milvus support would strengthen DigitalOcean’s AI and developer platform ecosystem.
