## Context and Problem Statement
|
|
|
|
### The Index Update Challenge
|
|
|
|
HNSW (Hierarchical Navigable Small World) indexes present unique challenges for delta-based updates:
|
|
|
|
1. **Graph Structure**: HNSW is a proximity graph where edges connect similar vectors
|
|
2. **Insert Complexity**: O(log n * ef_construction) for proper graph maintenance
|
|
3. **Update Semantics**: Standard HNSW has no native update operation
|
|
4. **Recall Sensitivity**: Graph quality directly impacts search recall
|
|
5. **Concurrent Access**: Updates must not corrupt concurrent searches
|
|
|
|
### Current HNSW Behavior
|
|
|
|
Ruvector's existing HNSW implementation (ADR-001) uses:
|
|
- `hnsw_rs` library for graph operations
|
|
- Mark-delete semantics (no graph restructuring)
|
|
- Full rebuild for significant changes
|
|
- No incremental edge updates
|
|
|
|
### Delta Update Scenarios
|
|
|
|
| Scenario | Vector Change | Impact on Neighbors |
|
|
|----------|---------------|---------------------|
|
|
| Minor adjustment (<5%) | Negligible | Neighbors likely still valid |
|
|
| Moderate change (5-20%) | Moderate | Some edges may be suboptimal |
|
|
| Major change (>20%) | Significant | Many edges invalidated |
|
|
| Dimension shift | Variable | Depends on affected dimensions |
|
|
|

|
## Decision
|
|
|
|
### Adopt Lazy Repair with Quality Bounds
|
|
|
|
We implement a **lazy repair** strategy that:
|
|
1. Applies deltas immediately to vector data
|
|
2. Defers index repair until quality degrades
|
|
3. Uses quality bounds to trigger selective repair
|
|
4. Maintains search correctness through fallback mechanisms
|
|
|
|

### Core Components

|
|
#### 1. Delta Tracker
|

## Considered Options
|
|
|
|
### Option 1: Immediate Rebuild
|
|
|
|
**Description**: Rebuild affected portions of graph on every delta.
|
|
|
|
**Pros**:
|
|
- Always accurate graph
|
|
- Maximum recall
|
|
- Simple correctness model
|
|
|
|
**Cons**:
|
|
- O(log n * ef_construction) per update
|
|
- High write latency
|
|
- Blocks concurrent searches
|
|
|
|
**Verdict**: Rejected - latency unacceptable for streaming updates.
|
|
|
|
### Option 2: Periodic Full Rebuild
|
|
|
|
**Description**: Allow degradation, rebuild entire index periodically.
|
|
|
|
**Pros**:
|
|
- Minimal write overhead
|
|
- Predictable rebuild schedule
|
|
- Simple implementation
|
|
|
|
**Cons**:
|
|
- Extended degradation periods
|
|
- Expensive rebuilds
|
|
- Resource spikes
|
|
|
|
**Verdict**: Available as configuration option, not default.
|
|
|
|
### Option 3: Lazy Update (Selected)
|
|
|
|
**Description**: Defer repairs, trigger on quality bounds.
|
|
|
|
**Pros**:
|
|
- Low write latency
|
|
- Bounded recall degradation
|
|
- Adaptive to workload
|
|
- Background repair
|
|
|
|
**Cons**:
|
|
- Complexity in quality monitoring
|
|
- Potential recall dips
|
|
|
|
**Verdict**: Adopted - optimal balance for delta workloads.
|
|
|
|
### Option 4: Learned Index Repair
|
|
|
|
**Description**: ML model predicts optimal repair timing.
|
|
|
|
**Pros**:
|
|
- Potentially optimal decisions
|
|
- Adapts to patterns
|
|
|
|
**Cons**:
|
|
- Training complexity
|
|
- Model maintenance
|
|
- Explainability
|
|
|
|
**Verdict**: Deferred to future version.

## Technical Specification
|
|
|
|
### Index Update API
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
/// Delta-aware HNSW index
|
|
#[async_trait]
|
|
pub trait DeltaAwareIndex: Send + Sync {
|
|
/// Apply delta without immediate index update
|
|
async fn apply_delta(&self, delta: &VectorDelta) -> Result<DeltaApplication>;
|
|
|
|
/// Get current recall estimate
|
|
fn current_recall(&self) -> f32;
|
|
|
|
/// Get vectors pending repair
|
|
fn pending_repairs(&self) -> Vec<VectorId>;
|
|
|
|
/// Force repair of specific vectors
|
|
async fn repair_vectors(&self, ids: &[VectorId]) -> Result<Vec<RepairResult>>;
|
|
|
|
/// Trigger background repair cycle
|
|
async fn trigger_repair_cycle(&self) -> Result<RepairCycleSummary>;
|
|
|
|
/// Search with optional quality sampling
|
|
async fn search_with_quality(
|
|
&self,
|
|
query: &[f32],
|
|
k: usize,
|
|
sample_quality: bool,
|
|
) -> Result<SearchWithQuality>;
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
#[derive(Debug)]
|
|
pub struct DeltaApplication {
|
|
pub vector_id: VectorId,
|
|
pub delta_id: DeltaId,
|
|
pub strategy: RepairStrategy,
|
|
pub deferred_repair: bool,
|
|
pub estimated_recall_impact: f32,
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
#[derive(Debug)]
|
|
pub struct SearchWithQuality {
|
|
pub results: Vec<SearchResult>,
|
|
pub quality_sample: Option<QualityMeasurement>,
|
|
pub stale_results: u32,
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Configuration
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
#[derive(Debug, Clone, Serialize, Deserialize)]
|
|
pub struct DeltaIndexConfig {
|
|
/// Quality bounds for triggering repair
|
|
pub quality_bounds: QualityBounds,
|
|
/// Repair engine configuration
|
|
pub repair_config: RepairConfig,
|
|
/// Delta tracker configuration
|
|
pub tracker_config: DeltaTrackerConfig,
|
|
/// Enable background repair
|
|
pub background_repair: bool,
|
|
/// Checkpoint interval (for recovery)
|
|
pub checkpoint_interval: Duration,
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
impl Default for DeltaIndexConfig {
|
|
fn default() -> Self {
|
|
Self {
|
|
quality_bounds: QualityBounds::default(),
|
|
repair_config: RepairConfig {
|
|
batch_size: 100,
|
|
repair_interval: Duration::from_secs(5),
|
|
background_repair: true,
|
|
priority: RepairPriority::MostChanged,
|
|
soft_update_threshold: 0.05, // 5% change
|
|
reinsert_threshold: 0.20, // 20% change
|
|
full_repair_threshold: 0.50, // 50% change
|
|
},
|
|
tracker_config: DeltaTrackerConfig {
|
|
repair_threshold: 0.15,
|
|
quality_decay_constant: 0.1,
|
|
},
|
|
background_repair: true,
|
|
checkpoint_interval: Duration::from_secs(300),
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```

## Consequences
|
|
|
|
### Benefits
|
|
|
|
1. **Low Write Latency**: Sub-millisecond delta application
|
|
2. **Bounded Degradation**: Quality monitoring prevents unacceptable recall
|
|
3. **Adaptive**: Repairs prioritized by impact and access patterns
|
|
4. **Background Processing**: Repairs don't block user operations
|
|
5. **Resource Efficient**: Avoids unnecessary graph restructuring
|
|
|
|
### Risks and Mitigations
|
|
|
|
| Risk | Probability | Impact | Mitigation |
|
|
|------|-------------|--------|------------|
|
|
| Recall below bounds | Low | High | Aggressive repair triggers |
|
|
| Repair backlog | Medium | Medium | Batch size tuning |
|
|
| Stale search results | Medium | Medium | Optional exact fallback |
|
|
| Checkpoint overhead | Low | Low | Incremental checkpoints |
