What is Vector Search 2.0?

It is a high-performance vector database service on Google Cloud Vertex AI designed for similarity search across billions of embeddings, featuring modern abstractions like Collections.

Can I use this for RAG applications?

Yes, it is specifically designed to help implement the retrieval layer of RAG systems using Google's latest vector infrastructure and data object models.

How does this skill help with GCP integration?

The vs20 skill fetches current documentation and Python SDK references to ensure Claude provides accurate code snippets and architectural advice for the latest GCP services.

Does it support the latest Python SDK?

Yes, the skill is programmed to reference the newest google-cloud-vectorsearch package documentation, methods, and summary classes.

What makes VS20 different from the original version?

VS20 introduces streamlined concepts like Collections and Data Objects, reducing complexity compared to the original Index/Endpoint model, which this skill specializes in.
