Anyone integrated elasticsearch as a source to mahout?  
If yes, would really appreciate some pointers.

Thanks

Can you elaborate how mahout can be integrated with ES.  
Not that i am proficient in mahout but am curious on how to improve  
functionaries of mahout using ES.

Thanks  
Vineeth

Mahout has some very interesting algos like categorization, clustering and lot  
more [https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MAHOUT/Algorithms](https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MAHOUT/Algorithms).. Some  
of these I would like to use some of them for my project. It would be nice  
if I can feed the ES indices directly to Mahout avoiding data duplication.  
Also leverage the multinode processing of ES while Mahout execution,  
something similar you can do on Mahout with Hadoop.

From my very initial study, Mahout can take lucene index. Since ES shards  
the data it won't be as straightforward, I would guess. So wondering if  
someone has used earlier?

Thanks  
Rahul
