[Feature]: Currently in the security industry, there is a trend towards domestic substitution, with an increasing number of domestically produced acceleration cards being used in projects, such as Huawei’s Ascend NPU and Alibaba’s TPU. However, Milvus does not currently support these cards, limiting its applicability in certain scenarios. Please investigate whether there are plans to support these cards in future versions。,限制了其适用的场景,请考察将来版本是否有支持计划。 #31634

Thanks for asking. We had some researches on Huawei NPU, unfortunately, currently some basic operators like sort does not support well, so the benifits for performance was limited compare to CPU. We will keep an eye on this and feel free to contact us if you have more updated info.
