Description

You can now use the LIKE keyword to do efficient text search queries in Azure Cosmos DB SQL (core) API. Using the LIKE keyword, you can use wildcard characters to check for partial matches of a string value, making the LIKE keyword a great addition to existing string system functions such as Contains, StartsWith, and RegexMatch. The LIKE keyword, like existing string system functions, can use indexes.
