Weaviate's pitch over Qdrant is the modules ecosystem — built-in text vectorizers, hybrid (BM25 + vector) search, and generative-search modules that can run an LLM over results inside the DB. Heavier than Qdrant; worth it when you want hybrid retrieval without bolting on an extra service.

// deploy notes

Optional inference container if you use built-in vectorizers — adds a few GB.
