depth in results displayed relevancy to the topic customer focussed database trainings that enhances a company's privacy and security
Base level integration, setup, and general services are extremely intuitive, easy to use, and highly capable of integration. It does demand higher levels for everything it offers, but the base level is very nice.
1. Limited Debugging Visibility: Troubleshooting indexing and query issues can be opaque without deeper telemetry or logs 2. Complex Schema Evolution: Updating index structures post deployment often requires reindexing, which can be resource intensive 3. Restricted Regional Availability: Certain advanced features (e.g., vector search) may not be supported across all Azure regions.
The technical support provided is not sufficient for businesses trying to implement this for the first time. implementation does require internal tenchical skills
The setup/total cost is a bit more expensive than competitors. While they do have many associated tools they bring, it is also a task/complicated for all of them to be recognized and used well. The learning curve for this tool is a bit hard.
