Cloud-Native Neural Search? Framework for Any Kind of Data

Python 3.7 3.8 3.9 PyPI Docker Image Version (latest semver) codecov

Jina🔊 is a neural search framework that empowers anyone to build SOTA and scalable deep learning search applications in minutes.

🌌 All data types - Scalable indexing, querying, understanding of any data: video, image, long/short text, music, source code, PDF, etc.

⏱️ Save time - The design pattern of neural search systems, from zero to a production-ready system in minutes.

🌩️ Fast & cloud-native - Distributed architecture from day one, scalable & cloud-native by design: enjoy containerization, streaming, sharding, replication, async scheduling, HTTP/gRPC/WebSocket protocols.

🍱 Own your stack - Keep end-to-end stack ownership of your solution, avoid integration pitfalls you get with fragmented, multi-vendor, generic legacy tools.

Run Quick Demo

Build Your First Jina App

Document, Executor, and Flow are three fundamental concepts in Jina.

Leveraging these three components, let's build an app that find lines from a code snippet that are most similar to the query.

💡 Preliminaries: character embedding, pooling, Euclidean distance 📗 Read our docs for details

1️⃣ Copy-paste the minimum example below and run it:

The architecture of a simple neural search system powered by Jina

import numpy as np
from jina import Document, DocumentArray, Executor, Flow, requests

class CharEmbed(Executor):  # a simple character embedding with mean-pooling
    offset = 32  # letter `a`
    dim = 127 - offset + 1  # last pos reserved for `UNK`
    char_embd = np.eye(dim) * 1  # one-hot embedding for all chars

    @requests
    def foo(self, docs: DocumentArray, **kwargs):
        for d in docs:
            r_emb = [ord(c) - self.offset if self.offset <= ord(c) <= 127 else (self.dim - 1) for c in d.text]
            d.embedding = self.char_embd[r_emb, :].mean(axis=0)  # average pooling

class Indexer(Executor):
    _docs = DocumentArray()  # for storing all documents in memory

    @requests(on='/index')
    def foo(self, docs: DocumentArray, **kwargs):
        self._docs.extend(docs)  # extend stored `docs`

    @requests(on='/search')
    def bar(self, docs: DocumentArray, **kwargs):
         docs.match(self._docs, metric='euclidean')

f = Flow(port_expose=12345, protocol='http', cors=True).add(uses=CharEmbed, replicas=2).add(uses=Indexer)  # build a Flow, with 2 replica CharEmbed, tho unnecessary
with f:
    f.post('/index', (Document(text=t.strip()) for t in open(__file__) if t.strip()))  # index all lines of _this_ file
    f.block()  # block for listening request

2️⃣ Open http://localhost:12345/docs (an extended Swagger UI) in your browser, click /search tab and input:

{"data": [{"text": "@requests(on=something)"}]}

That means, we want to find lines from the above code snippet that are most similar to @request(on=something). Now click Execute button!

Jina Swagger UI extension on visualizing neural search results

3️⃣ Not a GUI fan? Let's do it in Python then! Keep the above server running and start a simple client:

from jina import Client, Document
from jina.types.request import Response


def print_matches(resp: Response):  # the callback function invoked when task is done
    for idx, d in enumerate(resp.docs[0].matches[:3]):  # print top-3 matches
        print(f'[{idx}]{d.scores["euclidean"].value:2f}: "{d.text}"')


c = Client(protocol='http', port=12345)  # connect to localhost:12345
c.post('/search', Document(text='request(on=something)'), on_done=print_matches)

This prints the following results:

         Client@1608[S]:connected to the gateway at localhost:12345!
[0]0.168526: "@requests(on='/index')"
[1]0.181676: "@requests(on='/search')"
[2]0.218218: "from jina import Document, DocumentArray, Executor, Flow, requests"
