- A query is the basic component of a search. A search can be defined by one or
586
- more queries which can be mixed and matched in endless combinations. While
587
- <<glossary-filter,filters>> are queries that only determine if a document
588
- matches, those queries that also calculate how well the document matches are
589
- known as "scoring queries". Those queries assign it a score, which is later used
590
- to sort matched documents. Scoring queries take more resources than
591
- <<glossary-filter,non scoring queries>> and their query results are not
592
- cacheable. As a general rule, use query clauses for full-text search or for any
593
- condition that requires scoring, and use filters for everything else.

+ There are two types of queries: _scoring queries_ and _filters_. For more
