1What factors should drive the decision to split data across multiple collections versus one collection with a discriminator payload field?ExpertHigh 2Why is it important to decide on vector dimensionality and distance metric carefully before going to production, rather than treating them as easy-to-change settings?ExpertHigh 3What is a sensible payload schema design for a document search system that needs to support filtering by date range, category, and access permissions?ExpertHigh 4When does it make sense to chunk a long document into multiple points rather than storing one embedding per document?ExpertHigh 5Why should you avoid indexing every payload field 'just in case,' and how would you decide which fields actually need an index?ExpertHigh 6What's a good practice for storing large binary blobs (e.g., raw images) associated with a point, given payloads are meant for structured metadata?ExpertHigh 7How would you structure payload data to support both 'show me items in category X' and 'show me items NOT in category X' filters efficiently?ExpertHigh 8What retry and backoff strategy would you implement in a client that writes to Qdrant, and why does naive immediate retry risk making problems worse?ExpertHigh 9Why should embedding generation and Qdrant upserts typically be decoupled via a queue rather than done synchronously in a request handler?ExpertHigh 10What versioning strategy would you use so that switching to a new embedding model doesn't silently corrupt search quality for existing data?ExpertHigh
