The Story of SmartNews - from a Milvus User to an Active Contributor

Introduced the concept and implementation of collection aliases as a mechanism for hot reloading data in Milvus. This allows for dynamic updates of large datasets by swapping aliases to point to new collections, avoiding the need for data deletion/insertion or client code changes. The implementation was contributed by SmartNews and officially released with Milvus 2.0.0-RC7.
