Hi team. Im new to ES. My index has 19K documents spread over 2 fields: 'banner' and 'id'. And what sometimes happens is that when i search for a banner that explicitly exists (as-in-search) in the index it only comes in second, meaning with second best score. I would expect ES to return precisely what’s in the index if that’s precisely what im searching for. Here is an example: Query (over 'banner' field only): ‘Caldera OpenLinux Server’ Result 1: ‘Caldera OpenLinux Desktop’ Result 2: ‘Caldera OpenLinux Server’ I did not modify anything after installing elasticsearch and i use it pretty much out-of-the-box. querry = {'query': {'match': {'banner': 'Caldera OpenLinux Server'}}} print ((es.search(index='epm', doc\_type='banners', body=querry, size = 2))) Can you guys help me with an idea as to why this happens and maybe how to deal with that? Thank you. ---
