Is 'Analyzing' same as 'Tokenizing'?
Yes, in Lucene terminology these two are the same.
When we say the Keyword field is not analyzed, but indexed and
stored, does
it indicate it is not tokenized as well? That means inorder to find
a query
match against a keyword there has to be an exact match(case
sensitive).
That is correct. A Keyword field is taken exact case as-is as a
single term. A token is one piece of the analysis process. A term
what tokens are called when indexed.
Saying that it has to be an exact match is being a bit too
simplistic... it is possible to find terms inexactly by fuzzy,
prefix, and wildcard queries for example.
