CREATE TABLE items (embedding vector(3), category_id int) PARTITION BY LIST(category_id);
```
## Querying
Use a `SELECT` clause to get the distance
```sql
SELECT embedding <-> '[3,1,2]' AS distance FROM items;
```
Use a `WHERE` clause to get rows within a certain distance
```sql
SELECT * FROM items WHERE embedding <-> '[3,1,2]' < 100;
```
Note: Combine with `ORDER BY` and `LIMIT` to use an index
## Performance
To speed up queries without an index, increase `max_parallel_workers_per_gather`.
