Introducing Milvus Data Migration Tool

This post details the Milvus Data Migration Tool (MilvusDM), an open-source tool for importing and exporting data files with Milvus. It covers four primary migration types: Faiss to Milvus, HDF5 to Milvus, Milvus to Milvus, and Milvus to HDF5. For each type, it provides an overview, step-by-step instructions with YAML configuration examples, and sample code snippets. It also outlines the MilvusDM file structure and mentions planned features like binary data import from Faiss, blocklist/allowlist for Milvus-to-Milvus migration, merging data from multiple collections, and backup/recovery. The post also notes that MilvusDM has been deprecated in favor of the Vector Transport Service (VTS).
