Or Filter

A filter that matches documents using OR boolean operator on other queries. This filter is more performant then bool filter. Can be placed within queries that accept a filter.

{
    "filtered" : {
        "query" : {
            "term" : { "name.first" : "shay" }
        },
        "filter" : {
            "or" : [
                {
                    "term" : { "name.second" : "banon" }
                },
                {
                    "term" : { "name.nick" : "kimchy" }
                }
            ]
        }
    }
}

Caching

The result of the filter is not cached by default. The _cache can be set to true in order to cache it (tough usually not needed).
