You can give o.a.m.cf.taste.impl.model.jdbc.GenericJDBCDataModel a try. If that doesn't work, you need to create a custom implementation of AbstractJDBCDataModel which shouldn't be too hard.

Dear All ,

I just have a question. I chose to use Apache Mahout as my recommendation 
engine but at the same time due to some reasons it would be easier if I could 
store my data in a MS SQL Server db. Can mahout be connected with SQL Server 
easily without any problems ? Could it result in performance issue or prevent 
me from some features ?




In Mahout in Action , it is said that it can be connected with other db engines 
through JDB driver

"At the moment,  the  primary  subclass  of  JDBCDataModel  is  one  written  
for  use  with MySQL 5.x: MySQLJDBCDataModel. It may well work with older versions 
of MySQL, or even other databases, because it tries to use standard ANSI SQL where 
possible. It isn’t

difficult to create variations, as needed, to use database-specific syntax and 
features."


  but I see all articles , books using mysql and also the data model supported 
are for mysql only. Can you help me with that ?
