This Music Recommendation API provides artist recommendations based on collaborative filtering using the Alternating Least Squares (ALS) algorithm from the implicit library. The dataset utilized is from Last.fm. Note that alongside your .py file, include a requirements.txt so that the Dockerfile can install the necessary packages with pip. It demonstrates how to use a GPU with Python and the implicit library with Defang.

Essential Setup Files

1. A Dockerfile.
2. A compose file to define and run multi-container Docker applications (this is how Defang identifies services to be deployed). (compose.yaml file)

Prerequisite

1. Download Defang CLI
2. If you are using Defang BYOC, make sure you have properly authenticated your AWS account (optional)

A Step-by-Step Guide

1. Open the terminal and type defang login
2. Type defang compose up in the CLI
3. Your app should be up and running with Defang in minutes!
