Description:

Some terms might be considered more important than other terms. In order to give them a higher weight, we can provide a boost for those terms. When the search query contains the terms that have been configured with boost values, the documents that contain the boost value terms will be boosted. This means that the documents that have those terms will have a higher score, and thus will be placed higher in the result set.
