This is our first meeting! Come by at 6:30pm for pizza & soda and meeting folks. We'll present a real Big Data Warehouse solution and then go around the room and talk about some of the cool stuff you've been (or want to be) working on.

At this BDW meeting, were going to talk about building a Big Data Recommendation Engine, and how to leverage Solr and Mahout for next generation data access and insight. Presenters include: - Joe Caserta, President of Caserta Concepts, co-author The Data Warehouse ETL Toolkit - Grant Ingersoll, President of Lucidworks, Mahout co-founder and Lucene/Solr committer - Elliott Cordo, Principal Consultant at Caserta Concepts

We will talk about how Mahout can be leveraged to build a Recommendation Engine and how the open source search and machine learning capabilities of Apache Solr and Mahout can be combined to power large scale data driven applications that effectively combine real time access with large scale enrichment and discovery.
