## Weaviate on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS by cloudimg

Weaviate is the open-source, AI-native vector database for semantic search and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG). It stores objects and their vector embeddings and serves fast similarity and hybrid search over a REST and GraphQL API. The cloudimg image installs Weaviate 1.38 behind an nginx reverse proxy on port 80, persists all data on a dedicated Azure data disk, and generates a unique API key on the first boot of every VM. Backed by 24/7 expert support.

Dedicated Data Disk

Your vector store — objects, embeddings and indexes — lives on a dedicated, independently resizable Azure data disk mounted at /var/lib/weaviate, kept separate from the operating system disk and re-provisioned with every VM. Snapshot that disk to back up your data.

Secure By Default

The API key is unique per VM and stored in a root-only file; clients pass it as a Bearer token. nginx fronts the loopback Weaviate server so only port 80 is exposed; front it with TLS for public access.
