Qdrant Skills skills

Guides Qdrant monitoring and observability setup. Use when someone asks 'how to monitor Qdrant', 'what metrics to track', 'is Qdrant healthy', 'optimizer stuck', 'why is memory growing', 'requests are slow', or needs to set up Prometheus, Grafana, or health checks. Also use when debugging production issues that require metric analysis.

Diagnoses Qdrant production issues using metrics and observability tools. Use when someone reports 'optimizer stuck', 'indexing too slow', 'memory too high', 'OOM crash', 'queries are slow', 'latency spike', or 'search was fast now it's slow'. Also use when performance degrades without obvious config changes.

Different techniques to optimize the performance of Qdrant, including indexing strategies, query optimization, and hardware considerations. Use when you want to improve the speed and efficiency of your Qdrant deployment.

Diagnoses and fixes slow Qdrant search. Use when someone reports 'search is slow', 'high latency', 'queries take too long', 'low QPS', 'throughput too low', 'filtered search is slow', or 'search was fast but now it's slow'. Also use when search performance degrades after config changes or data growth.

Guides sliding time window scaling in Qdrant. Use when someone asks 'only recent data matters', 'how to expire old vectors', 'time-based data rotation', 'delete old data efficiently', 'social media feed search', 'news search', 'log search with retention', or 'how to keep only last N months of data'.

Diagnoses and improves Qdrant search relevance. Use when someone reports 'search results are bad', 'wrong results', 'low precision', 'low recall', 'irrelevant matches', 'missing expected results', or asks 'how to improve search quality?', 'which embedding model?', 'should I use hybrid search?', 'should I use reranking?'. Also use when search quality degrades after quantization, model change, or data growth.

Guides Qdrant deployment selection. Use when someone asks 'how to deploy Qdrant', 'Docker vs Cloud', 'local mode', 'embedded Qdrant', 'Qdrant EDGE', 'which deployment option', 'self-hosted vs cloud', or 'need lowest latency deployment'. Also use when choosing between deployment types for a new project.

Diagnoses and fixes slow Qdrant indexing and data ingestion. Use when someone reports 'uploads are slow', 'indexing takes forever', 'optimizer is stuck', 'HNSW build time too long', or 'data uploaded but search is bad'. Also use when optimizer status shows errors, segments won't merge, or indexing threshold questions arise.

Diagnoses and reduces Qdrant memory usage. Use when someone reports 'memory too high', 'RAM keeps growing', 'node crashed', 'out of memory', 'memory leak', or asks 'why is memory usage so high?', 'how to reduce RAM?'. Also use when memory doesn't match calculations, quantization didn't help, or nodes crash during recovery.

Diagnoses and guides Qdrant horizontal scaling decisions. Use when someone asks 'vertical or horizontal?', 'how many nodes?', 'how many shards?', 'how to add nodes', 'resharding', 'data doesn't fit', or 'need more capacity'. Also use when data growth outpaces current deployment.

Guides Qdrant vertical scaling decisions. Use when someone asks 'how to scale up a node', 'need more RAM', 'upgrade node size', 'vertical scaling', 'resize cluster', 'scale up vs scale out', or when memory/CPU is insufficient on current nodes. Also use when someone wants to avoid the complexity of horizontal scaling.

Guides Qdrant query throughput (QPS) scaling. Use when someone asks 'how to increase QPS', 'need more throughput', 'queries per second too low', 'batch search', 'read replicas', or 'how to handle more concurrent queries'.

Guides Qdrant query volume scaling. Use when someone asks 'query returns too many results', 'scroll performance', 'large limit values', 'paginating search results', 'fetching many vectors', or 'high cardinality results'.

Diagnoses Qdrant search quality issues. Use when someone reports 'results are bad', 'wrong results', 'not relevant results', 'missing matches', 'recall is low', 'approximate search worse than exact', 'which embedding model', or 'quality dropped after quantization'. Also use when search quality degrades without obvious changes.

Guides Qdrant search strategy selection. Use when someone asks 'should I use hybrid search?', 'how to rerank?', 'results are not relevant', 'I don't get needed results from my dataset but they're there', 'retrieval quality is not good enough', 'results too similar', 'need diversity', 'MMR', 'relevance feedback', 'recommendation API', 'discovery API', or 'missing keyword matches'

Qdrant provides client SDKs for various programming languages, allowing easy integration with Qdrant deployments.

Guides embedding model migration in Qdrant without downtime. Use when someone asks 'how to switch embedding models', 'how to migrate vectors', 'how to update to a new model', 'zero-downtime model change', 'how to re-embed my data', or 'can I use two models at once'. Also use when upgrading model dimensions, switching providers, or A/B testing models.

Guides Qdrant monitoring setup including Prometheus scraping, health probes, Hybrid Cloud metrics, alerting, and log centralization. Use when someone asks 'how to set up monitoring', 'Prometheus config', 'Grafana dashboard', 'health check endpoints', 'how to scrape Hybrid Cloud', 'what alerts to set', 'how to centralize logs', or 'audit logging'.

Guides Qdrant scaling decisions. Use when someone asks 'how many nodes do I need', 'data doesn't fit on one node', 'need more throughput', 'cluster is slow', 'too many tenants', 'vertical or horizontal', 'how to shard', or 'need to add capacity'.

Guides Qdrant query latency optimization. Use when someone asks 'search is slow', 'how to reduce latency', 'p99 is too high', 'tail latency', 'single query too slow', 'how to make search faster', or 'latency spikes'.

Guides Qdrant data volume scaling decisions. Use when someone asks 'data doesn't fit on one node', 'too much data', 'need more storage', 'vertical or horizontal scaling', 'tenant scaling', 'time window rotation', or 'data growth exceeds capacity'.

Guides Qdrant multi-tenant scaling. Use when someone asks 'how to scale tenants', 'one collection per tenant?', 'tenant isolation', 'dedicated shards', or reports tenant performance issues. Also use when multi-tenant workloads outgrow shared infrastructure.

Explains hybrid search in Qdrant. Use when someone asks 'how do I setup hybrid search?', 'how to combine keyword and semantic search?', 'sparse plus dense vectors?', 'missing keyword matches', 'how to combine results from multiple searches?' and 'combining multiple representations'
