can pmilvus run on centos7 or centos8?

[zhu3359]

i want to read data from a kind of self_developed queue and process data, then insert to milvus, the queue client must run on centos, but i read from the docs that pmilvus must run on ubuntu https://milvus.io/docs/milvus_lite.md#Prerequisites, is there any solutions?

Milvus Lite is not pymilvus.

pymilvus is a python sdk for connecting milvus server.
milvus-lite is an external lib for pymilvus, milvus-lite is a lightweight milvus server which runs in python environment.

pymilvus(SDK) can work in any OS environment that supports Python >3.8

milvus-lite only supports:

• Ubuntu >= 20.04 (x86_64 and arm64)
• MacOS >= 11.0 (Apple Silicon M1/M2 and x86_64)

This line will run into milvus-lite:

client = MilvusClient("./milvus_demo.db")

This line will connect with a remote milvus server:

client = MilvusClient(uri="http://IP:19530")
