Pinecone Setup · Dundee

Pinecone Setup in Dundee

Standing up Pinecone for Dundee organisations, with the cost model understood before the index is created. You are not only paying for queries — an index holding your vectors costs something continuously, so an abandoned experiment left running is a line on the bill that nobody associates with a project that ended months ago.

Why this comes up

The problem

Three indexes exist from prototypes nobody uses, and the monthly cost has never been attributed to anything.

What you get

What we deliver

  • Index configuration chosen against expected volume and query pattern
  • Namespaces used to separate tenants or datasets within one index
  • Metadata designed for filtering, since it shapes what queries are possible
  • Dimension and metric matched to the embedding model, which cannot change later
  • Cost projected at real volume and attributed to the feature responsible
  • Prototype indexes given an owner and an expiry rather than left running

Pinecone Setup in Dundee — common questions

What locks in when an index is created?
The dimension and the distance metric, which are determined by your embedding model. Changing model later means a new index and a full re-embedding of the corpus, so the model choice is effectively a structural decision rather than a tunable one.
When should we use namespaces?
To keep separate datasets apart within one index — per customer, per document set, per environment. It is cheaper and simpler than an index each, and it makes deleting one tenant's data a single operation rather than a filtered sweep.
How much metadata should we store?
Enough to filter meaningfully, and no more than needed. Filters are what let a query restrict to current documents or a specific department, and that capability has to be designed at ingestion because retrofitting metadata means reprocessing everything.
How do we control cost?
Attribute it and review it. Vector infrastructure is easy to create and easy to forget, so every index should have a named owner and a purpose — and prototypes should be removed rather than left running indefinitely at low cost.
Do you work with businesses across Dundee City?
Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout Scotland, including Dundee and the surrounding Dundee City area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
What kind of Dundee businesses do you usually work with?

Do you cover the areas around Dundee?
Yes — we work throughout Scotland, including Perth, Aberdeen, Edinburgh. Dundee is an urban area of roughly 150,000+, and we take on work across the wider Dundee City region rather than the city boundary alone.
