### Applied Recommender Systems
Ever wonder how Amazon and Netflix seem to have an uncanny ability to anticipate what products you might be interested in based on your past selections? This presentation will focus on an actual Recommender System application and will focus on:
Recommender Systems Overview - a quick recap of my January talk on [Intro to Recommenders](http://www.slideshare.net/rpbrehm/recommendersystempresentationpjug01212014-32136430).
* Apache Mahout – A production-grade Machine Learning system. One of Mahout's strong use cases is building recommenders.
* Hadoop - Map/Reduce and other tools such as Hive
* Spring XD - A Spring.io project to simplify the development of big data applications.

Doors will be open at 5:30pm for those that may arrive a bit early.
The room is "Air Huarach" in Nolan Ryan building in Nike Campus. The building does not have an address of its own so the participants will have to come to One Bowerman Drive, Beaverton OR and get Directions from Nike Security from there on. I have attached a campus map for reference.
In the lobby of Nolan Ryan building there will be I or somebody else from Nike helping to let people in the building and direct them to the conference room. |
