The problem I'm trying to solve is: 1. Users create folders that contain on average 500 docs. These folders change every day for active users which could be 5-30% of all users. The change is usually adding a few docs. 2. There will be 10-100 Million docs and 100,000 users each with a dozen folders. 3. I will have a list of query words that is around 30-100 and a list of 50-200 folders that are interesting. 4. I want to search all my docs with this list of words and folders without requiring any of them and getting the docs that have the most of them to rank the highest (topics I'm interested in from people I like). Query time needs to be around a minute. Questions 1. Is this possible with ES? 2. How would you do it? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

How would you do it? that's a big question 🙂 I'd start by playing with Elasticsearch, indexing some documents, with fields for user, folder, date and content, then come back with more specific questions clint > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google > Groups "elasticsearch" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send > an email to [elasticsearch+unsubscribe@googlegroups.com](mailto:elasticsearch+unsubscribe@googlegroups.com). > For more options, visit [https://groups.google.com/groups/opt\_out](https://groups.google.com/groups/opt_out). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.
