CreateRecommender

Creates a recommender with the recipe (a Domain dataset group use case) you specify. You create recommenders for a Domain dataset group and specify the recommender's Amazon Resource Name (ARN) when you make a GetRecommendations request.

Minimum recommendation requests per second

Important

A high minRecommendationRequestsPerSecond will increase your bill. We recommend starting with 1 for minRecommendationRequestsPerSecond (the default). Track your usage using Amazon CloudWatch metrics, and increase the minRecommendationRequestsPerSecond as necessary.

When you create a recommender, you can configure the recommender's minimum recommendation requests per second. The minimum recommendation requests per second (minRecommendationRequestsPerSecond) specifies the baseline recommendation request throughput provisioned by Amazon Personalize. The default minRecommendationRequestsPerSecond is 1. A recommendation request is a single GetRecommendations operation. Request throughput is measured in requests per second and Amazon Personalize uses your requests per second to derive your requests per hour and the price of your recommender usage.

If your requests per second increases beyond minRecommendationRequestsPerSecond, Amazon Personalize auto-scales the provisioned capacity up and down, but never below minRecommendationRequestsPerSecond. There's a short time delay while the capacity is increased that might cause loss of requests.

Your bill is the greater of either the minimum requests per hour (based on minRecommendationRequestsPerSecond) or the actual number of requests. The actual request throughput used is calculated as the average requests/second within a one-hour window. We recommend starting with the default minRecommendationRequestsPerSecond, track your usage using Amazon CloudWatch metrics, and then increase the minRecommendationRequestsPerSecond as necessary.

Status

A recommender can be in one of the following states:

CREATE PENDING > CREATE IN_PROGRESS > ACTIVE -or- CREATE FAILED
STOP PENDING > STOP IN_PROGRESS > INACTIVE > START PENDING > START IN_PROGRESS > ACTIVE
DELETE PENDING > DELETE IN_PROGRESS

To get the recommender status, call DescribeRecommender.

Note

Wait until the status of the recommender is ACTIVE before asking the recommender for recommendations.
