Namespaces in pinecone

Hi, @pranavimulpuri1

When using namespaces, does not allow you to query multiple namespaces in a single query statement. To do so, you will need to use the metadata filtering feature.

Filtering queries using Metadata vs Namespace

Hi all, We are reviewing Pinecone as a solution for a vector database to store Embeddings of user messages. My main question is how to store the vectors so we can query only specific user messages. From what I read, there are two options. Using meta data or using namespaces. Can anyone share pros/cons for each of those options?
