## Summary - Add the canonical Rust `FunctionWorkerResourceBudget` and `RefreshColumnOptions::resource_budget()` for explicit Enterprise Function refreshes. - Forward the nested budget through Python sync/async, PyO3, Rust remote requests, Node NAPI, and TypeScript. - Require positive CPU and memory values; normalize an omitted nested GPU count to numeric zero; reject the nested budget when combined with the top-level `gpu_count` shorthand. - Reject `resource_budget` on LanceDB Embedded refresh paths instead of silently ignoring it. - Document the Rust, Python, and TypeScript APIs, including that SQL servers currently require all three budget fields. The Rust, Python, and TypeScript additions use `cpu_millis` / `cpuMillis`, `memory_bytes` / `memoryBytes`, and `gpu_count` / `gpuCount`. The top-level GPU shorthand keeps its existing behavior and remains mutually exclusive with the complete nested budget. ## Scope and compatibility This change configures only the explicit refresh call. It does not configure `add_columns` automatic refresh and does not introduce a fleet-wide call-cap interface. A LanceDB Enterprise server must expose the nested `resource_budget` backfill contract. LanceDB Embedded continues to support its existing expression refresh defaults and rejects the new complete budget explicitly. ## Validation Validated against the final signed product source: - Rust: resource-budget remote serialization test `2 passed`; validation test `1 passed`. - Python: actual PyO3 build; remote-request matrix `22 passed`; invalid-option matrix `20 passed`; local rejection `22 passed`; Ruff check and format clean. - Repository-standard Pyright entry point: `0 errors`, within the repository's configured include set. - Node: native build and Biome lint passed; the existing remote-request test `1 passed`, including fractional, negative, overflow, NaN, and infinity nested GPU cases; the existing local-rejection test `1 passed`. - TypeDoc generation and generated-document cleanliness passed. - The native-tested product source differs from this head only in two semantically equivalent Node range checks required by Clippy. Current CI compiles and lints the final blobs. No dependency or lockfile changes are included.

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
