**This PR changes configurations in a backward incompatible way.**
Run configs today repeat full SQLite/Postgres snippets everywhere a
store is needed, which means duplicated credentials, extra connection
pools, and lots of drift between files. This PR introduces named storage
backends so the stack and providers can share a single catalog and
reference those backends by name.
## Key Changes
- Add `storage.backends` to `StackRunConfig`, register each KV/SQL
backend once at startup, and validate that references point to the right
family.
- Move server stores under `storage.stores` with lightweight references
(backend + namespace/table) instead of full configs.
- Update every provider/config/doc to use the new reference style;
docs/codegen now surface the simplified YAML.
## Migration
Before:
```yaml
metadata_store:
type: sqlite
db_path: ~/.llama/distributions/foo/registry.db
inference_store:
type: postgres
host: ${env.POSTGRES_HOST}
port: ${env.POSTGRES_PORT}
db: ${env.POSTGRES_DB}
user: ${env.POSTGRES_USER}
password: ${env.POSTGRES_PASSWORD}
conversations_store:
type: postgres
host: ${env.POSTGRES_HOST}
port: ${env.POSTGRES_PORT}
db: ${env.POSTGRES_DB}
user: ${env.POSTGRES_USER}
password: ${env.POSTGRES_PASSWORD}
```
After:
```yaml
storage:
backends:
kv_default:
type: kv_sqlite
db_path: ~/.llama/distributions/foo/kvstore.db
sql_default:
type: sql_postgres
host: ${env.POSTGRES_HOST}
port: ${env.POSTGRES_PORT}
db: ${env.POSTGRES_DB}
user: ${env.POSTGRES_USER}
password: ${env.POSTGRES_PASSWORD}
stores:
metadata:
backend: kv_default
namespace: registry
inference:
backend: sql_default
table_name: inference_store
max_write_queue_size: 10000
num_writers: 4
conversations:
backend: sql_default
table_name: openai_conversations
```
Provider configs follow the same pattern—for example, a Chroma vector
adapter switches from:
```yaml
providers:
vector_io:
- provider_id: chromadb
provider_type: remote::chromadb
config:
url: ${env.CHROMADB_URL}
kvstore:
type: sqlite
db_path: ~/.llama/distributions/foo/chroma.db
```
to:
```yaml
providers:
vector_io:
- provider_id: chromadb
provider_type: remote::chromadb
config:
url: ${env.CHROMADB_URL}
persistence:
backend: kv_default
namespace: vector_io::chroma_remote
```
Once the backends are declared, everything else just points at them, so
rotating credentials or swapping to Postgres happens in one place and
the stack reuses a single connection pool.

[Chroma](https://www.trychroma.com/) is an inline and remote vector
|
|
database provider for Llama Stack. It allows you to store and query vectors directly within a Chroma database.
|
|
That means you're not limited to storing vectors in memory or in a separate service.
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
Chroma supports:
|
|
- Store embeddings and their metadata
|
|
- Vector search
|
|
- Full-text search
|
|
- Document storage
|
|
- Metadata filtering
|
|
- Multi-modal retrieval
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
To use Chrome in your Llama Stack project, follow these steps:
|
|
|
|
1. Install the necessary dependencies.
|
|
2. Configure your Llama Stack project to use chroma.
|
|
3. Start storing and querying vectors.
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
You can install chroma using pip:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
pip install chromadb
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Documentation
|
|
