+## Business Value Statement
+Redis provides the following additional advanced search capabilities to derive further value of Redis-held data:
+* Vector Similarity Search - Store and search by ML-generated encodings of text and images
+* Search + JSON Filtering - Combine the power of search with JSONPath filtering of search results
+* Aggregation - Create processing pipelines of search results to extract analytic insights.
+
+## Modules Needed
+```c#
+using StackExchange.Redis;
+using NRedisStack;
+using NRedisStack.RedisStackCommands;
+using NRedisStack.Search;
+using NRedisStack.Search.Literals.Enums;
+using NRedisStack.Search.Aggregation;
+```
+## Vector Similarity Search (VSS)
+### Syntax
+[VSS](https://redis.io/docs/stack/search/reference/vectors/)
+
+### Data Load
+```c#
+ db.HashSet("vec:1", "vector", (new float[] {1f,1f,1f,1f}).SelectMany(BitConverter.GetBytes).ToArray());
+ db.HashSet("vec:2", "vector", (new float[] {2f,2f,2f,2f}).SelectMany(BitConverter.GetBytes).ToArray());
+ db.HashSet("vec:3", "vector", (new float[] {3f,3f,3f,3f}).SelectMany(BitConverter.GetBytes).ToArray());
+ db.HashSet("vec:4", "vector", (new float[] {4f,4f,4f,4f}).SelectMany(BitConverter.GetBytes).ToArray());
+```
+### Index Creation
+#### Command
+```c#
+ ISearchCommands ft = db.FT();
+ try {ft.DropIndex("vss_idx");} catch {};
+ Console.WriteLine(ft.Create("vss_idx", new FTCreateParams().On(IndexDataType.HASH).Prefix("vec:"),
+ new Schema()
+ .AddVectorField("vector", VectorField.VectorAlgo.FLAT,
+ new Dictionary()
+ {
+ ["TYPE"] = "FLOAT32",
+ ["DIM"] = "4",
+ ["DISTANCE_METRIC"] = "L2"
+ }
+ )));
+```
+#### Result
+```bash
+True
+```
+
+### Search
+#### Command
+```c#
+ float[] vec = new[] {2f,2f,3f,3f};
+ var res = ft.Search("vss_idx",
+ new Query("*=>[KNN 3 @vector $query_vec]")
+ .AddParam("query_vec", vec.SelectMany(BitConverter.GetBytes).ToArray())
+ .SetSortBy("__vector_score")
+ .Dialect(2));
+ foreach (var doc in res.Documents) {
+ foreach (var item in doc.GetProperties()) {
+ if (item.Key == "__vector_score") {
+ Console.WriteLine($"id: {doc.Id}, score: {item.Value}");
+ }
+ }
+ }
+```
+#### Result
+```bash
+id: vec:2, score: 2
+id: vec:3, score: 2
+id: vec:1, score: 10
+```
