Multi Backend Vector Store Abstraction With Pluggable Storage

via “vector-based semantic memory with pluggable embedding and storage backends”

Microsoft's SDK for integrating LLMs into apps — plugins, planners, and memory in C#/Python/Java.

Unique: Implements a two-tier abstraction (IEmbeddingGenerationService + IMemoryStore) that fully decouples embedding generation from vector storage, allowing independent provider selection. This is more modular than LangChain's VectorStore pattern which couples embedding and storage, and provides better multi-backend support than LlamaIndex's single-backend approach. Exposes memory operations as kernel plugins (TextMemoryPlugin) for native integration with function calling.

vs others: More flexible than LangChain's tightly-coupled embedding+storage pattern, and better integrated with function calling than LlamaIndex, though with less mature vector store support compared to LangChain's ecosystem of 20+ integrations.
