Systems, methods, and apparatuses for collaborative filtering in a cloud based computing environment

摘要

An application server platform operated by a cloud computing services provider receives input from a customer organization application executing on the application server platform, the input specifying a first action on a first item type, and a second action on a second item type to recommend in response to the specified first action on the first item type. The application server platform searches for a record in a permanent data store that contains the first action, the first item type, the second action, and the second item type, and assigns a value to a token associated with the record based on when the application server platform most recently generated a recommendation that included the first action on the first item type and the second action on the second item type from the record, when the search locates the record in the permanent data store. One embodiment further comprises generating a current recommendation that includes the first action on the first item type and the second action on the second item type from the located record, based on the assigned value of the token associated with the located record.
