One example method includes enabling a user to define a query that comprises a hybrid search syntax (HSS), and the HSS is in the form of a single string that comprises a lexical component and a semantic component, receiving the query from the user, parsing the lexical component and the semantic component into respective groups of one or more sub-components, performing a lexical search based on the sub-components of the lexical component, and performing a semantic search based on the sub-components of the semantic component, ranking, separately from each other, results of the lexical search and results of the semantic search, combining the results of the lexical search and the results of the semantic search to create aggregate results, and re-ranking the aggregate results.
