+## Vector search
+
+Data is often unstructured, which means that it isn't described by a well-defined schema.
+
+Examples of unstructured data include:
+- Text passages
+- Images
+- Videos
+- Music titles
+
+One approach to dealing with unstructured data is to vectorize it. Vectorizing means mapping unstructured data to a flat sequence of numbers.
+
+Vectors represent the data embedded in an N-dimensional space.
+
+Machine learning models have facilitated the rise of embeddings as a widely embraced method for generating dense, low-dimensional vector representations.
+
+Given a suitable machine learning model, the generated embeddings can encapsulate complex patterns and semantic meanings inherent in data.
+
+You can use Redis Stack as a vector database, which allows you to:
+
+- Store vectors and the associated metadata within hashes or JSON documents
+- Retrieve vectors
+- Perform vector searches
