Agreed, vector search is great but it's only one of many tools you can use to create a great search solution.

We recently did a bunch of evaluation work to quantify the differences between keyword search, vector search, hybrid, reranking, etc. across a few datasets. We shared the results here: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/azure-ai-services-blo...

Disclosure - I work in the Azure Search team.

Check out FeatureBase, when you get a chance. Vectors and super fast operations on sets. I'm using it for managing keyterms extracted from the text and stored along with the vectors.
