I'm not sure quite what you are asking. No, it is not all built on top of Hadoop. If you run a Hadoop-based job on 1 node, it is easy to run it on 100 nodes. The non-Hadoop-based recommender is completely different from the Hadoop-based recommender and they are not interchangeable. I am not sure what you mean by "level of integration".
