Description


You can now use fuzzy search in Azure Cosmos DB for NoSQL to deliver more flexible and forgiving search experiences—directly within your database. With fuzzy search in public preview, your applications can return relevant results even when users make typos, use alternate spellings, or enter incomplete terms. This means your users will spend less time refining queries and more time finding what they need. 

 

Whether you’re building GenAI apps, customer support tools, or e-commerce experiences, fuzzy search helps you improve recall and usability without relying on external search engines or complex integrations. Combined with the existing full-text and hybrid search capabilities in Azure Cosmos DB for NoSQL, you can now create rich, intelligent search experiences that scale globally and perform with the efficiency of a native feature built right into the database.
