# FAISS - Efficient Similarity Search

Facebook AI's library for billion-scale vector similarity search.

## When to use FAISS

**Use FAISS when:**
- Need fast similarity search on large vector datasets (millions/billions)
- GPU acceleration required
- Pure vector similarity (no metadata filtering needed)
- High throughput, low latency critical
- Offline/batch processing of embeddings

**Metrics**:
