Without any configurations, Azure AI Search can still perform searches and get relevant results — but there’s much more you can leverage, and in some situations, you might need to use these advanced options.
In this section, you’ll learn about hybrid search in Azure AI Search.
Not all vector search and generative AI implementations allow hybrid searches, and some vector databases don’t support them. Azure AI Search provides simple APIs you can configure to quickly perform hybrid searches on your complex data types.
By the end of this lesson, you will learn to:
- Design a hybrid search system, combining vector and keyword-based searches.
- Implement relevance tuning to balance semantic and lexical matching.
- Evaluate the effectiveness of hybrid search in various scenarios.
