More about Index Refreshing
Index Refreshing involves regularly updating the indices used by retrieval systems to ensure they reflect the latest changes in the underlying data. This process is critical for maintaining the accuracy and relevance of results in systems like semantic search or dense retrieval.
Index refreshing is especially important in dynamic environments where content frequently changes, such as news platforms, product catalogs, or live knowledge bases.
