Self-host

Self-host (Chroma) is an open-source database and retrieval engine designed for storing and searching embeddings and metadata. It supports multi-modal retrieval across text, images, and more, and allows full-text, dense, sparse, and hybrid vector searches. Developers and organizations can run Chroma as a fully self-hosted solution for managing, indexing, and querying data, making it ideal for building retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) apps, code search, and advanced information retrieval workflows.
