We shared some lessons from building large-scale search systems on the How AI is Built podcast.

Search Systems at Scale: Avoiding Local Maxima and Other Engineering Lessons

Modern search systems must balance performance, relevancy, and cost — requiring smart architectural decisions at every layer. While vector search is popular, hybrid approaches combining traditional text and vector methods often achieve better real-world results.

A strong architecture covers three key areas:

• Ingestion and Indexing: Batch vs. streaming decisions.
• Query Processing: Balancing understanding and speed.
• Analytics and Feedback: Enabling systematic improvement.

Testing must happen against real production data, using golden sets and A/B testing to avoid local maxima — improving one area at the expense of another. Ultimately, it’s about finding the right balance between corpus size, latency, and cost while keeping systems manageable and results strong.

Success relies on deep query understanding, structured relevancy testing (not anecdotal fixes), and strong data governance. Even 1–2% performance gains can be significant at scale.
