Jina is an AI-powered search framework, empowering developers to create cross-/multi-modal search systems (e.g. text, images, video, audio) on the cloud. Jina is long-term supported by a full-time, venture-backed team.
⏱️ Time Saver - Bootstrap an AI-powered system in just a few minutes.
🧠 First-Class AI models - Jina is a new design pattern for neural search systems with first-class support for state-of-the-art AI models.
🌌 Universal Search - Large-scale indexing and querying data of any kind on multiple platforms. Video, image, long/short text, music, source code, and more.
🚀 Production Ready - Cloud-native features work out-of-the-box, e.g. containerization, microservice, distributing, scaling, sharding, async IO, REST, gRPC.
🧩 Plug & Play - With Jina Hub, easily extend Jina with simple Python scripts or Docker images optimized for your search domain.

On Linux/MacOS with Python >= 3.7:
pip install jina
To install Jina with extra dependencies, or install on Raspberry Pi please refer to the documentation.
We provide a universal Docker image that supports multiple architectures (including x64, x86, arm-64/v7/v6). Simply run:
docker run jinaai/jina --help
As a starter, you can try out our "Hello, World" - a simple demo of image neural search for Fashion-MNIST. No extra dependencies needed, just run:
jina hello-world
...or even easier for Docker users, no install required:
docker run -v "$(pwd)/j:/j" jinaai/jina hello-world --workdir /j && open j/hello-world.html # replace "open" with "xdg-open" on Linux
The Docker image downloads the Fashion-MNIST training and test dataset and tells Jina to index 60,000 images from the training set. Then it randomly samples images from the test set as queries and asks Jina to retrieve relevant results. The whole process takes about 1 minute, and eventually opens a webpage and shows results like this:
The implementation behind it is simple:
Python API | or use YAML spec | or use Dashboard |
from jina.flow import Flow
f = (Flow()
.add(uses='encoder.yml', parallel=2)
.add(uses='indexer.yml', shards=2,
separated_workspace=True))
with f:
f.index(fashion_mnist, batch_size=1024) |
!Flow
pods:
encode:
uses: encoder.yml
parallel: 2
index:
uses: indexer.yml
shards: 2
separated_workspace: true |
Explore sharding, containerization, concatenating embeddings, and more
from jina.flow import Flow
f = (Flow().add(uses='encoder.yml', parallel=2)
.add(uses='indexer.yml', shards=2, separated_workspace=True))
from jina.flow import Flow
f = Flow().add(uses='encoder.yml', host='192.168.0.99')
from jina.flow import Flow
f = (Flow().add(uses='jinahub/cnn-encode:0.1')
.add(uses='jinahub/faiss-index:0.2', host='192.168.0.99'))
from jina.flow import Flow
f = (Flow().add(name='eb1', uses='BiTImageEncoder')
.add(name='eb2', uses='KerasImageEncoder', needs='gateway')
.needs(['eb1', 'eb2'], uses='_concat'))
from jina.flow import Flow
f = Flow(port_expose=45678, rest_api=True)
with f:
f.block()
Intrigued? Play with different options:
jina hello-world --help
pip install jina[devel]
jina hub new --type app
You can easily create a Jina project from templates with one terminal command. This creates a Python entrypoint, YAML configs and a Dockerfile. You can start from there.
