> Knowledge store is in preview and not intended for production use. The [REST API version 2019-05-06-Preview](search-api-preview.md) provides this feature. There is no .NET SDK support at this time.

Knowledge store is a feature in Azure Search that persists output from an [AI enrichment pipeline](cognitive-search-concept-intro.md) for later analysis or other downstream processing. An *enriched document* is a pipeline's output, created from content that has been extracted, structured, and analyzed using resources in Cognitive Services. In a standard AI-based pipeline, enriched documents are transitory, used only during indexing and then discarded. With knowledge store, documents are saved for use in other apps or downstream data science workloads.

If you have used AI skills with Azure Search in the past, you already know that *skillsets* are used to move a document through a sequence of enrichments. The outcome can be an Azure Search index, or (new in this preview) projections in a knowledge store. The two outputs, search index and knowledge store, are physically distinct from each other. They share the same content, but are stored and used in very different ways.

Physically, a knowledge store is an [Azure Storage account](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/storage/common/storage-account-overview), either as Azure Table storage, Azure Blob storage, or both, depending on how you configure the pipeline. Any tool or process that can connect to an Azure Storage account can consume the contents of a knowledge store.

Projections are your mechanism for structuring data in a knowledge store. For example, through projections, you can choose whether output is saved as a single blob or a collection of related tables. An easy way to view knowledge store contents is through the built-in [Storage Explorer](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/vs-azure-tools-storage-manage-with-storage-explorer?tabs=windows) for Azure storage.

To use knowledge store, add a `knowledgeStore` element to a skillset that defines step-wise operations in an indexing pipeline. During execution, Azure Search creates a space in your Azure storage account and projects the enriched documents with the definition created within the pipeline.
