Cognitive Search

MicroStrategy ONE (June 2024) introduces support for cognitive search, a centralized search service that adds support when a user performs a search using synonyms, typos, abbreviations, natural language, and multilingual search queries.

Cognitive search is supported on MicroStrategy Cloud environments.

Cognitive search has the following advantages:

  • Bring search experiences into the cognitive era: Cognitive search can help you search for synonyms, types, abbreviations, natural language, and multilingual search queries.

  • Improve performance: Cognitive search is 1.7 times faster than Lucene Search when you search and load objects with 20 concurrent threads.

  • CPU/Memory usage: 46% better efficiency in CPU resource usage and 23% reduction in memory usage.

  • High availability and auto-scaling: Cognitive search is a MicroStrategy-managed cloud-native service. With high availability and auto-scaling enabled, it can auto-scale up and down based on resource usage.

  • Search support: Supports existing search capabilities and results plus augmented semantic search.

Enable the Cognitive Search

Contact MicroStrategy Support to enable cognitive search. Cognitive search must be enabled before you can use global search.

Cognitive Search Entries

See the following example using the Library global search. When you search for "indices", multiple synonyms appear in your search results including "Key Performance Indicators", "Category Measures", "KPIs", etc.

See the following example in the object search in report design mode. When your search includes a typo such as "proofit", the correct search results appear such as "Profit Forecast", "Profit Forecast, West", "Store Gauges (Prompted)", etc.

Note the following:

  • The search keyword length must be less than 512 characters

  • New operators are supported (regular search only):

    • Special characters (+, -, =, &, ||, >, <, !, etc.)

    • Logical operators (and, or, not)
