| What to compare | Qdrant | OriginChainDB |
|---|---|---|
| Stored data | Collections hold points with IDs, vectors and optional JSON fields. A point can have multiple named vectors. Source: Qdrant data model | Store records, vectors and relationships. Use IDs to connect them across separate APIs. |
| Text search | Supports BM25 full-text search, text filters, sparse vectors and hybrid search. Source: Qdrant search and compatibility FAQ | Use vector and full-text APIs. Combine their results in your app. |
| Relationships | Its FAQ says built-in knowledge graphs and ontologies are not planned. Source: Qdrant search and compatibility FAQ | Store explicit links and follow them through the graph API. |

The question
Which matching documents can this user access?
- 01
Define access
Load document IDs, workspace details and access fields. Include small and large workspaces.
- 02
Search with filters
Use the same vectors and access rules. Test both broad and narrow filters.
- 03
Check the final result
Read the source record and confirm access. Test permission changes and deleted documents.
What to check
Access checks
Confirm that restricted documents never reach the user.
Useful matches
Check relevance with real workspace and field filters.
Update effort
Include search-field updates, source reads and relationship changes.
Before you move data
Plan your move.
Copy the data. Then check your queries, access rules and updates before switching.
-
Map data and vectors
Keep IDs, named-vector settings and filter fields. Decide which fields belong in source records.
-
Preserve access rules
Recreate workspace boundaries. Test that users cannot reach another workspace’s data.
-
Compare rankings
Check filtered results and updates. Identical embeddings can rank differently under different search settings.
Common questions.
Does Qdrant support keyword and hybrid search?
Yes. Qdrant documents full-text search, text filters and hybrid search. Include these when testing your app.
Is a search index graph the same as a knowledge graph?
No. A search index may use a graph to find nearby vectors. A knowledge graph stores the real relationships your app needs to query.
