Load a dataset

To load a dataset into memory, use the load_dataset() method. You can use load a Pinecone public dataset or your own dataset.

Example

The following example loads the quora_al-MiniLM-L6-bm25 Pinecone public dataset.

Python

from pinecone_datasets import list_datasets, load_dataset

list_datasets()
# ["quora_all-MiniLM-L6-bm25", ... ]

dataset = load_dataset("quora_all-MiniLM-L6-bm25")

dataset.head()

Iterate over datasets

You can iterate over vector data in a dataset using the iter_documents() method. You can use this method to upsert or update vectors, to automate benchmarking, or other tasks.

Example

The following example loads the quora_all-MiniLM-L6-bm25 dataset and then iterates over the documents in the dataset in batches of 100 and upserts the vector data to a Pinecone serverless index named docs-example.

Python

from pinecone.grpc import PineconeGRPC as Pinecone
from pinecone import ServerlessSpec
from pinecone_datasets import list_datasets, load_dataset

pinecone = Pinecone(api_key="API_KEY")

dataset = load_dataset("quora_all-MiniLM-L6-bm25")

pinecone.create_index(
  name="docs-example",
  dimension=384,
  metric="cosine",
  spec=ServerlessSpec(
    cloud="aws",
    region="us-east-1"
  )
)

index = pinecone.Index("docs-example")

for batch in dataset.iter_documents(batch_size=100):
    index.upsert(vectors=batch)

Upsert a dataset as a dataframe

To quickly ingest data when using the Python SDK, use the upsert_from_dataframe method. The method includes retry logic andbatch_size, and is performant especially with Parquet file data sets.

The following example upserts the uora_all-MiniLM-L6-bm25 dataset as a dataframe.

Python

from pinecone import Pinecone, ServerlessSpec
from pinecone_datasets import list_datasets, load_dataset

pc = Pinecone(api_key="API_KEY")

dataset = load_dataset("quora_all-MiniLM-L6-bm25")

pc.create_index(
  name="docs-example",
  dimension=384,
  metric="cosine",
  spec=ServerlessSpec(
    cloud="aws",
    region="us-east-1"
  )
)

# To get the unique host for an index, 
# see https://docs.pinecone.io/guides/manage-data/target-an-index
index = pc.Index(host="INDEX_HOST")

index.upsert_from_dataframe(dataset.drop(columns=["blob"]))

Iterate over datasets

You can iterate over vector data in a dataset using the iter_documents() method. You can use this method to upsert or update vectors, to automate benchmarking, or other tasks.

Example

Python

from pinecone.grpc import PineconeGRPC as Pinecone
from pinecone import ServerlessSpec
from pinecone_datasets import list_datasets, load_dataset

pinecone = Pinecone(api_key="API_KEY")

dataset = load_dataset("quora_all-MiniLM-L6-bm25")

pinecone.create_index(
  name="docs-example",
  dimension=384,
  metric="cosine",
  spec=ServerlessSpec(
    cloud="aws",
    region="us-east-1"
  )
)

index = pinecone.Index("docs-example")

for batch in dataset.iter_documents(batch_size=100):
    index.upsert(vectors=batch)

Upsert a dataset as a dataframe

To quickly ingest data when using the Python SDK, use the upsert_from_dataframe method. The method includes retry logic andbatch_size, and is performant especially with Parquet file data sets.

The following example upserts the uora_all-MiniLM-L6-bm25 dataset as a dataframe.

Python

from pinecone import Pinecone, ServerlessSpec
from pinecone_datasets import list_datasets, load_dataset

pc = Pinecone(api_key="API_KEY")

dataset = load_dataset("quora_all-MiniLM-L6-bm25")

pc.create_index(
  name="docs-example",
  dimension=384,
  metric="cosine",
  spec=ServerlessSpec(
    cloud="aws",
    region="us-east-1"
  )
)

# To get the unique host for an index, 
# see https://docs.pinecone.io/guides/manage-data/target-an-index
index = pc.Index(host="INDEX_HOST")

index.upsert_from_dataframe(dataset.drop(columns=["blob"]))
