Limiting Results

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Are there any good techniques to limit the number of results other than the
setting a hard limit.

When I search for something I get a lot of results and about the top 10 -
20 are relevant. Then after that the results aren't very relevant. I was
wondering if there were any tips that could help me with returning results.

Thanks,
Shaun Farrell

You might look at the scan facilities and only return the first N (10, 20,
...) and get more if the user requests.

Min score might make sense:
