Range query
A range query is a type of query that allows us to retrieve data within a specified range of values. It is used to filter data based on a range of values, such as numbers, dates, or strings. For example, we can perform a range query to retrieve all documents where the price
field falls within the range of 20
to 50
.
Range queries are often used in conjunction with other types of queries, such as search queries and aggregation queries. For example, we can perform a search query to find all the documents that contain the word "apple"
and then perform a range query to filter the results by price. This allows us to find all documents that contain the word "apple"
and have a price between 20
and 50
.
Range queries can be very efficient because they only need to scan data within the specified range. This makes them a good choice for large datasets.
