## Feature
You can now use vector search and vector index features in BigQuery.
You can use the[VECTOR\_SEARCH function](https://cloud.google.com/bigquery/docs/reference/standard-sql/search%5Ffunctions#vector%5Fsearch)to search embeddings in order to identify semantically similar entities.
You can use[vector indexes](https://cloud.google.com/bigquery/docs/vector-index)to make `VECTOR_SEARCH` more efficient, with the trade-off of returning more approximate results.
You can try the vector search and vector index capabilities by using the[Search embeddings with vector search](https://cloud.google.com/bigquery/docs/vector-search)tutorial.
The BigQuery vector search and vector index features are[generally available](https://cloud.google.com/products/#product-launch-stages)(GA).
