Description


Filtered vector search is now generally available in Azure Cosmos DB for MongoDB (vCore). With this release, you can narrow down your search space, filtering before running a vector search to make results more accurate and performance significantly faster—especially on large datasets. 

 

This feature works with all supported vector indexes, including inverted file index (IVF), hierarchical navigable small world (HNSW), and DiskANN.
