Getting started tutorials - Amazon Personalize

Getting started tutorials

The following sections help you get started using Amazon Personalize with the Amazon Personalize console, AWS CLI, and AWS SDKs. The tutorials use historical data that consists of 100,000 movie ratings on 9,700 movies from 600 users.

To simplify tutorials:

  • We use a small dataset. This might negatively impact any metrics generated by resources. The tutorials serve as an introduction to the Amazon Personalize workflow and won't necessarily generate the highest performing models.

  • We create only an Item interactions dataset, and rely on the fact that a user saw a movie and not on what they rated the movie. This simplifies the preparation of the training data.

  • We don't record live user interaction events. For information on capturing user events, see Recording real-time events to influence recommendations.

You can choose to get started with a Domain dataset group or a Custom dataset group:

When you finish the getting started exercise, to avoid incurring unnecessary charges, delete the resources that you created. For more information, see Requirements for deleting Amazon Personalize resources.
