user?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but this would make the total recommendation space
sparse, thus making it hard to find good recommendations (ie
recommendations which are relevent and not obsolete). If so, it might be

Cassio,
I would implement a CandidateItemsStrategy that returns products that are
available now. A neighborhood based recommender would iterate over those
products, and rank them based on the similarity measure you provide.
If the DataModel of your recommender does not contain most of your

Assuming that most recent ratings or implicit preference data is more

BTW I have the thing running on a demo site but am getting very poor results
that I think are related to the Solr setup. I’d appreciate any ideas.
The sample data has 27,000 items and something like 4000 users. The preference
