hybrid-search-implementation

authentic

Combine vector and keyword search for improved retrieval. Use when implementing RAG systems, building search engines, or when neither approach alone provides sufficient recall.

When to use

• Building RAG systems with improved recall
• Combining semantic understanding with exact matching
• Handling queries with specific terms (names, codes)
• Improving search for domain-specific vocabulary
• When pure vector search misses keyword matches

When not to use

• The task is unrelated to hybrid search implementation
• You need a different domain or tool outside this scope
