Enable RQ Compression Guide for Weaviate Cloud#337
Merged
Conversation
- Fix attribute path: use vector_config.vector_index_config.quantizer instead of vector_config.quantizer - Use type(quantizer).__name__ instead of quantizer.type (which doesn't exist) - Add support for legacy collections (pre-named vectors) by checking config.vector_index_config directly when config.vector_config is empty
- Remove flat index update example (compression is immutable on flat indexes) - Update dynamic index example to only modify HNSW config (flat is immutable) - Add batch processing recommendation (limit ~100 collections per batch) - Add warnings about cluster instability when updating too many collections - Update performance considerations with batching guidelines
- Create new "Manage collections" section in cloud sidebar - Move enable-compression.mdx from manage-clusters to manage-collections - Update sidebar_position to 1 for the new section
