Moving BatchingStrategy configuration from individual vector store implementations
to the base AbstractVectorStoreBuilder to reduce code duplication and provide consistent
batching behavior across all vector stores.
The default TokenCountBatchingStrategy is now set in the base builder class.
* Remove use of Document.getContext method from spring-ai-core, use getText
* Remove deprecated ChatOptionsBuilder class
* Remove deprecated FunctionCallingOptionsBuilder class
- Rename all specific builder inner classes (PineconeBuilder, MongoDBBuilder, etc.)
to simply Builder for consistency across vector store implementations
- Update code references to use the new standardized Builder class names
The change establishes a consistent naming convention for builder classes
across the vector store implementations, improving code uniformity.
- Replace Document.getContent() with getText() across all vector store implementations
- Fix incorrect package declarations in package-info.java files
- Make builder constructors private and implement proper builder patterns
- Add @Nullable annotations for better null safety
- Simplify PineconeVectorStore builder API by requiring essential parameters in factory method
- Make static Map fields final
- Clean up code and improve JavaDoc documentation
The changes focus on making the vector store APIs more consistent,
type-safe, and maintainable while following best practices for
builder patterns and null safety.
This commit refactors the builder pattern implementation across all VectorStore
implementations to make the EmbeddingModel a required constructor parameter
rather than an optional builder method. Key changes include:
- Move embeddingModel from being a builder method to a required constructor parameter
- Make embeddingModel final in AbstractVectorStoreBuilder
- Remove redundant validate() methods since EmbeddingModel validation now happens
in constructor
- Update all VectorStore builder instantiations to pass EmbeddingModel in builder
creation
- Add @Nullable annotations to appropriate methods in VectorStore interface
This change improves the API design by:
1. Enforcing that EmbeddingModel is provided at builder creation time
2. Removing the possibility of forgotten EmbeddingModel configuration
3. Simplifying the builder implementation by moving validation to construction
4. Making the dependency on EmbeddingModel more explicit in the API
Breaking Changes:
- VectorStore builders must now be created with an EmbeddingModel parameter
- The embeddingModel() builder method has been removed from all implementations
This commit deprecates builder methods with the "with" prefix in the VectorStoreObservationContext class
and introduces new methods without the prefix for a cleaner API. For example:
withCollectionName() → collectionName()
withDimensions() → dimensions()
withNamespace() → namespace()
The old methods are marked as deprecated for maintaining backward compatibility.
All vector store implementations have been updated to use the new method names.
The Document class previously allowed multiple media entries while also having a
text field, leading to ambiguity in content handling. This change enforces a
clear separation between text and media documents to prevent content type
confusion and simplify document processing.
A Document now must contain either text content or a single media entry, but
never both. This aligns with the class's primary use in ETL pipelines where
clear content type boundaries are essential for proper embedding generation and
vector database storage.
Additional architectural changes:
- Document now implements a cleaner API by removing deprecated methods
- Removed MediaContent interface implementation from Document class
- Document.getMedia() now returns a single Media object instead of Collection
- Removed EMPTY_TEXT constant in favor of proper null handling
- Constructor signatures simplified and streamlined
- Builder pattern improved to enforce single content type constraint
The breaking changes include:
- Media is now a single entry instead of a collection
- Content field renamed to text for clarity
- Removed support for mixed content types
- Simplified builder API to prevent ambiguous construction
Prefer using text-related methods over deprecated content methods to
better reflect the actual content type being handled and improve API clarity.
- Since the Document object's reference to the `embedding` is deprecated and will be removed, the VectorStore implementations require a way to store the embedding of the corresponding Document objects
- One way to fix this is, to have the EmbeddingModel#embed to return the embeddings in the same order as that of the Documents passed to it.
- Since both the Document and embedding collections use the List object, their iteration operation will make sure to keep them in line with the same order.
- A fix is required to preserve the order when batching strategy is applied.
- Updated the Javadoc for BatchingStrategy
- Fixed the Document List order in TokenCountBatchingStrategy
- Refactored the vector store implementations to update this change
Resolves #GH-1826
Document
* Introduced “score” attribute in Document API. It stores the similarity score.
* Consolidate “distance” metadata for Documents. It stores the distance measurement.
* Adopted prefix-less naming convention in Document.Builder and deprecated old methods.
* Deprecated the many overloaded Document constructors in favour of Document.Builder.
Vector Stores
* Every vector store implementation now configures a “score” attribute with the similarity score of the Document embedding. It also includes the “distance” metadata with the distance measurement.
* Fixed error in Elasticsearch where distance and similarity were mixed up.
* Added missing integration tests for SimpleVectorStore.
* The Azure Vector Store and HanaDB Vector Store do not include those measurements because the product documentation do not include information about how the similarity score is returned, and without access to the cloud products I could not verify that via debugging.
* Improved tests to actually assert the result of the similarity search based on the returned score.

ObjectMapper instantiation is costly, so unless its usage
is one-shot, it is better to create a reusable instance
for upcoming usage.
Also, before this commit, serialization of most Kotlin
classes was not supported due to the lack of proper
Jackson KotlinModule detection.
This commit:
- Avoids per invocation ObjectMapper instantiation when
relevant
- Automatically detects and enables well-known Jackson
modules including the Kotlin one
- Removes org.springframework.ai.vectorstore.JsonUtils
which looks not needed anymore
More optimizations are possible like reusing more
ObjectMapper instances, but this could introduce more breaking
changes so this commit intends to be a good first step.
Kotlin tests will be provided in a follow-up commit.
Additional changes:
- Update ModelOptionsUtils to use JacksonUtils.instantiateAvailableModules()
- Add missing license headers
- Add missing author Javadoc comments

Vector store observations support several key-value pairs, coming from the Spring AI abstractions. Currently, whenever a value is not available (either because not configured by the user or not supported by the vector store provider), span/metrics attributes are generated anyway with value none.
That causes several issues, including an unneeded increase in time series, challenges in alerting/monitoring (especially for integer/double attributes that suddenly are populated with a string), and non-compliance with the OpenTelemetry Semantic Conventions (according to which, attributes should be excluded altogether if there's no value).
This pull request changes the conventions for vector store observations to exclude the generation of span/metrics attributes for optional values which don't have any value.

Apply batching when adding Documents to the following vector stores:
- Azure vector store
- Cassandra
- MongoDB Atlas
- OpenSearch
- Oracle
- Pinecone
This improves efficiency by processing multiple Documents at once instead of individually, reducing the overhead for each operation.
Related to #1261
- Based on the pattern established in other vector store support implementations,
added a builder class as an inner class of the GemfireVectorStoreConfig class which
is also moved as an inner class to GemfireVectorStore.
Based on the original PR: https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-ai/pull/1168
* Consolidate usage of “db.collection.name” attribute to track table name, collection name, index name, document name, or whatever concept a vector database uses to store data. Removed “db.index” that was use sometimes instead of “db.collection.name”. This usage is in line with the OpenTelemetry Semantic Conventions.
* Configure query response content to be included as a “span event” instead of a “span attribute” if the backend system supports that, similar to how we do for the model observations.
* Structure vector store observation attributes in dedicated enums, including one for the Spring AI Kinds to avoid hard-coding the same value in a lot of places. This follows the OpenTelemetry Semantic Conventions as much as possible. Also, adopt Spring usual non-null-by-default strategy as much as possible.
* Align vector store conventions to the chat model ones, and follow alphabetical order for values. This is particularly useful for the convention classes, for which the Micrometer performance of exporting telemetry data improves when key values are added already sorted to the context.
* Fix flaky test in Mistral AI.
* Improve Qdrant integration tests.
