> I think we should expose the flat formats in the codec. But the required new functions for indexing the vectors seem to justify a new abstraction. Can we add the abstraction as an extension of the existing knnVectorFormat/Readers/Writers? So instead of adding the functions to the base class, we introduce the flat format as an abstract class that extends the base one. That would allow to reference it on the HNSW format directly and all flat formats would inherit from it directly. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
