Over the past few years, relevant recommendations have become expected and essential as part of the customer experience. From the customer’s perspective, marketing interactions are becoming helpful and time saving, instead of being generic, out of context, and annoying. If you shop at any of the major online retailers such as Amazon or Bluefly you may think they somehow have gotten inside your head as they present and recommend products relevant to you. This is an exponential improvement of the traditional psych-demographic profiling and targeting of the “old world”.

At this BDW meeting, hosted by Caserta Concepts, we’re going to talk about building a Big Data Recommendation Engine, and how to leverage Solr and Mahout for next generation data access and insight.
