The `FORK` processing command creates multiple execution branches to operate
on the same input data and combines the results in a single output table. A discriminator column (`_fork`) is added to identify which branch each row came from.

Together with the [`FUSE`](/reference/query-languages/esql/commands/fuse.md) command, `FORK` enables hybrid search to combine and score results from multiple queries. To learn more about using {{esql}} for search, refer to [ES|QL for search](docs-content://solutions/search/esql-for-search.md).

**Branch identification:**
- The `_fork` column identifies each branch with values like `fork1`, `fork2`, `fork3`
- Values correspond to the order branches are defined
