Make relevant movie recommendations using Amazon Neptune, Amazon Neptune Machine Learning, and Amazon OpenSearch Service

In this post, we discuss a design for a highly searchable movie content graph database built on Amazon Neptune, a managed graph database service. We demonstrate how to build a list of relevant movies matching a user’s search criteria through the powerful combination of lexical, semantic, and graphical similarity methods using Neptune, Amazon OpenSearch Service, and Neptune Machine Learning. To match, we compare movies with similar text as well as similar vector embeddings. We use both sentence and graph neural network (GNN) models to build these embeddings.
