The distance metric is an index used for vector search. It defines how it determines how close your query vector is to other vectors within the index.

- Distance metrics determine how the vector search engine assesses similarity between vectors.
92-
- Cosine, Euclidean (L2), and Dot Product are the most commonly used distance metrics in vector search.
93-
- The machine learning model and type of embedding you use will determine which distance metric is best suited for your use-case.

- Different metrics determine different scoring characteristics. For example, the `cosine` distance metric is well suited to text, sentence similarity and/or document search use-cases. `euclidean` can be better suited for image or speech recognition use-cases.
