Tags and Folksonomies

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Suppose I have content which has title and description. Users can tag
content and search content based on tag, title and description. Tag
has more weightage.

Any inputs on how indexing and retrieval will work given there is
content and tags using ES? Has anyone implemented search based on
collaborative tagging?

Thanks,
Nishant

I am not sure what collabrative tagging is but then try the following

You can maintain 3 fields , title , description and tags.
Here tags would be an array.
And while searching you can use the terms query for looking into the tags -

Also you can use the bool search for mentioning multiple search condition -

Also you should also look into faceted search - looks like you are looking
into this to me -

Thanks

Thanks Vineeth. Here is a quick link: *
Folksonomy - Wikipedia*http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Folksonomy

Think of it as the tags on delicious.com. My use case is tag based search
and content discovery.

This is exactly what facets do.
I hope you could achieve this using facets.
