- Purchase of the print or Kindle book includes a free PDF eBook
Book DescriptionWhile natural language processing (NLP) is largely used in search use cases, this book aims to inspire you to start using vectors to overcome equally important domain challenges like observability and cybersecurity. The chapters focus mainly on integrating vector search with Elastic to enhance not only their search but also observability and cybersecurity capabilities. The book, which also features a foreword written by the founder of Elastic, begins by teaching you about NLP and the functionality of Elastic in NLP processes. Here you'll delve into resource requirements and find out how vectors are stored in the dense-vector type along with specific page cache requirements for fast response times. As you advance, you'll discover various tuning techniques and strategies to improve machine learning model deployment, including node scaling, configuration tuning, and load testing with Rally and Python. You'll also cover techniques for vector search with images, fine-tuning models for improved performance, and the use of clip models for image similarity search in Elasticsearch. Finally, you'll explore retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and learn to integrate ChatGPT with Elasticsearch to leverage vectorized data, ELSER's capabilities, and RRF's refined search mechanism. By the end of this NLP book, you'll have all the necessary skills needed to implement and optimize vector search in your projects with Elastic.What you will learn - Optimize performance by harnessing the capabilities of vector search
- Explore image vector search and its applications
- Detect and mask personally identifiable information
- Implement log prediction for next-generation observability
- Use vector-based bot detection for cybersecurity
- Visualize the vector space and explore Search.Next with Elastic
- Implement a RAG-enhanced application using Streamlit
Who this book is forIf you're a data professional with experience in Elastic observability, search, or cybersecurity and are looking to expand your knowledge of vector search, this book is for you. This book provides practical knowledge useful for search application owners, product managers, observability platform owners, and security operations center professionals. Experience in Python, using machine learning models, and data management will help you get the most out of this book.
