Function versions identify independent Function objects and their numeric revisions. Rust and Python expose the object ID, location, canonical decimal version, metadata, and availability separately from the OCI image digest. Computed-column applications carry the complete object reference, so existing bindings retain their identity after a name is removed and reused. Source authoring keeps the existing create_function/create_function_async, job wait, and column-binding APIs. The server coordinates baking followed by registration; users do not have to manage manifest digests to create a Function. The previous stored Function representation is intentionally unsupported. Existing contract tests and shared wire fixtures are migrated to the new model. This SDK change accompanies the final integration layer https://github.com/lancedb/sophon/pull/7887 in the Sophon stack: https://github.com/lancedb/sophon/pull/7885 → https://github.com/lancedb/sophon/pull/7886 → https://github.com/lancedb/sophon/pull/7887. A metadata-only revision can retain the same executable image; Function version numbers must not be used as image cache keys. --------- Co-authored-by: lancedb automation <robot@lancedb.com> Co-authored-by: Yang Cen <bubble-cal@outlook.com> Co-authored-by: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>

The ultimate multimodal data platform for AI/ML applications.
LanceDB is designed for fast, scalable, and production-ready vector search. It is built on top of the Lance columnar format. You can store, index, and search over petabytes of multimodal data and vectors with ease. LanceDB is a central location where developers can build, train and analyze their AI workloads.
Demo: Multimodal Search by Keyword, Vector or with SQL
