Expert Analysis: Keyword Search vs Semantic Search – Part Two

In Part 1 of this series from two of our senior consultants, Fernando Islas and Chris Marino, the focus was on the differences between Keyword Search and Semantic Search. In Part 2 of this Expert Analysis blog, Islas and Marino are back to focus on the different tools available for each method, as well as discuss what it takes to move them from the design phase to a full-blown production system. They also offer some advice on how to realize the benefits of each in the same solution.  Note: We recognize that in the industry, semantic search is used interchangeably for any search method that can infer the users’ intent or context from their queries, beyond keywords. In this blog, we will be specifically discussing vector search.
