Pagination With Vector Search

["Natarajan, Rajeswari" <ra...@sap.com.INVALID>]

Hi All,


I believe Solr pagination is supported with vector similarity parser and not with KNN as KNN supports only topK and pagination to be supported in client side.
Please confirm.

Also how would it work for hybrid search.

Thanks,

Hello,

The pagination is supported by the knn_text_to_vector Query Parser. As long as your topK is greater than "start + rows", you can provide "rows" and "start" parameters.

For the hybrid search, I'm not sure what the current options in Solr are. In my solution, I run an RRF algorithm & the pagination outside Solr.
