I have few questions on Taxonomy , if anybody have clarity on below questions it would be great.
1) Is it mandatory to keep the clone version of Taxonomy? or the best way to keep the scratch creation of this Taxonomy and use it in the portal, because our portal is also become scratch we are not using esc OOB portal.
2) Which application we need to keep for this ?, as per my investigation if we cloned we need to keep Employee taxonomy application but if we are creating from scratch we can keep it in Global Application.
3) Is it good to map all the Catalog Items under this Taxonomy Topic ?we have almost more than 1000 + catalog items tagged in different categories ?
Thanks,
Santoshi P

@Santoshi5 here's what I've learnt from our experience with our migration to the new Employee Centre and have 2 portals, one of those is a custom portal.
1) I see the OOB Taxonomies as guidelines and you may choose to use them and make tweaks to the topics to meet your business requirements, but if they don't align, it's pretty easy to create one from scratch, just a lot more work needed. On your Portal record, it has a related list for which Taxonomies are linked to the portal.
2) We did everything in Employee taxonomy application, this is to keep it consistent with the OOB records.
3) Your catalog items will only be available when you map them to a topic, but there are UI Actions to help you map categories to topics.
