Your question is End-to-End Intelligent Search. Take a moment with it on the right.
Talk me through your thinking if you like. When you're confident, submit your answer and I'll grade it like a real screen (7/10 or better passes).
Design an end-to-end architecture for an intelligent search system using VectorDB.
Explain how you would clarify requirements, ingest and embed documents, retrieve candidates, rank results, serve queries, and evaluate quality. Address online versus batch processing, latency and cost tradeoffs, data freshness, access control, monitoring, and failure recovery. State reasonable scale assumptions where needed and justify your technology and model choices.
