1. A method, comprising:
presenting, using a guidance tool, a set of configuration information for a cloud solution at a user interface;
receiving a selection of first configuration information of the cloud solution, the selection being received from a user device;
determining, by a content-based filtering system, second configuration information associated with the user device, the content-based filtering system using first information about a given item in relation to the first configuration information and second information related to implicit preferences or explicit preferences over time of the user device;
ranking the second configuration information based on the second information;
updating the user interface to provide the ranked second configuration information of the cloud solution, the ranked second configuration information generated using a hybrid recommender system-comprising a collaborative filtering system and the content-based filtering system,
wherein the hybrid recommender system and the guidance tool are operatively connected, and
wherein the hybrid recommender system generates the second configuration information according to information comprising:
user information comprising past user behaviors while using the guidance tool, the past user behaviors comprising implicit feedback while using the guidance tool and explicit feedback associated with a feature of previously configured proposed cloud solutions,
prior configuration information of the previously configured proposed cloud solutions, and
the selection of the first configuration information of the cloud solution;
receiving a subsequent selection associated with the first configuration information and the second configuration information of the cloud solution; and
generating, by the guidance tool, a proposed cloud solution output based at least in part on the first configuration information and the second configuration information of the cloud solution and the subsequent selection.
