requires the embed-dedup license feature

Embedding de-duplication stores each embedding once per content hash and counts references to it, so the same content embedded by many users or documents is stored, and paid for, only once. You compute the content hash and the embedding; HotKV keeps them in named namespaces. EMBED.DEDUP.RELEASE lowers the reference count of hash by 1, for example when a document that used it is deleted. When the count reaches zero, the embedding is removed.

Return value

Section titled “Return value”
Case RESP2 RESP3
Reference released Integer 1 Same
No such hash or namespace Integer 0 Same

Errors:

  • ERR wrong number of arguments for 'embed.dedup.release' command if the argument count is wrong.
  • NOLICENSE embed-dedup requires a HotKV license. Contact sales@hotkv.com if your license does not include the embed-dedup feature.
