Delivering personalized content in real time is critical for modern media and entertainment platforms, whether it's keeping sports fans engaged with live updates or surfacing the next binge-worthy series. In this hands-on workshop, you'll build and deploy a production-grade recommendation system step by step. Using AI techniques like embeddings and vector search, you'll transform raw content into personalized recommendations and package the pipeline as lightning-fast APIs with Momento Functions.
By the end, you'll have three live APIs - embed, search, and recommend - ready to plug into any app or workflow. No prior experience with AI or Rust required.
You can follow along with the complete code samples and instructions on GitHub here.
