Persistent storage of factorizations in SVDRecommender
------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MAHOUT-667
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-667
             Project: Mahout
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Collaborative Filtering
    Affects Versions: 0.5
            Reporter: Chris Newell
            Assignee: Sean Owen
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 0.4


As discussed previously (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-640) it 
would be beneficial to provide a persistent storage mechanism for 
factorizations created by SVDRecommender (in package 
org.apache.mahout.cf.taste.impl.recommender.svd) as these can be time consuming 
to produce. It would also allow factorizations to be computed on one machine 
then distributed to other machines providing predictions, improving efficiency 
and scalability.

Having a "persistence strategy" interface has been suggested that could be 
implemented as required. I'll try to post a outline proposal for discussion 
purposes in the next few days but any comments or suggestions would be very 
welcome.
