Want to replace Pinecone (Vector database for AI) with software you run and own? These 3 Nomad Packs give you a batteries-included, host-networked deployment on HashiCorp Nomad — one command to add the registry, one to run.

Chroma — an open-source embedding (vector) database for building AI apps with retrieval: store embeddings and metadata, then run fast similarity search for RAG and semantic search. Deployed as a host-networked Nomad service with a persistent, on-disk store.
Qdrant — an open-source vector database and similarity-search engine for embeddings, powering semantic search and RAG. Deployed as a host-networked Nomad service with a persistent volume; pairs with the ollama pack for a self-hosted AI stack.
Weaviate — an open-source vector database for semantic search and AI/RAG apps, with REST + GraphQL + gRPC APIs and pluggable vectorizer modules. Deployed as a single host-networked Nomad service with a persistent data volume. Pairs with the ollama and open-webui packs.
