S3 Vectors - Metadata filtering using ListVectorsCommand #7305
Description
Describe the feature
in S3 Vectors SDK, only QueryVectorsCommand has the filtering of metadata.
It would be essential to have filtering by metadata when listing vectors to enable useful operations like getting the vectors that is associated with a certain metadata like article id or author, etc...
Other Vector DB has this operation like Qdrant, and some more.
Use Case
- Get vectors associated on a certain metadata and for our use case, we store multiple articles on an index but we cannot fetch the vectors associated on a certain
articleId - Workaround is to fetch all vectors under the index and do the filtering client-side which is not optimal in the long run
- Another workaround is to store the vector keys on separate DB
Proposed Solution
Add filter in ListVectorsCommandInput
