We Benchmarked 20+ Embedding APIs with Milvus: 7 Insights That Will Surprise You

This post benchmarks the latency of over 20 embedding APIs when integrated with Milvus's TextEmbedding Function. It details the impact of network geography, model size, token length, and batch size on API performance, and compares cloud API latency with local inference options. The post also validates the minimal overhead introduced by Milvus's TextEmbedding Function and provides optimization tips for RAG embedding performance.
