This post announces the general availability of Pinecone Dedicated Read Nodes (DRN). It details how DRN provides reserved infrastructure for queries, offering predictable low-latency and high throughput through provisioned nodes and a warm data path. The post explains the scaling dimensions (replicas for throughput, shards for storage) and highlights use cases like billion-vector semantic search and high-QPS recommendation systems. It also provides guidance on creating DRN indexes and migrating from On-Demand to DRN.
