can scale PredictionIO on AWS with <a href="http://aws.amazon.com/cloudformation/">CloudFormation</a>. Here we have defined a PredictionIO CloudFormation stack that you can deploy a functional, fully distributed PredictionIO cluster in minutes.</p><h3 id='instances' class='header-anchors'>Instances</h3><p>The PredictionIO CloudFormation stack creates two types of instance: <strong>compute and storage</strong>. By default, the stack will launch <strong>1 compute Instance and 3 Storage instances</strong>.</p><p>The compute instance <em>(ComputeInstance)</em> acts as Spark master. You can launch extra compute instances <em>(ComputeInstanceExtra)</em> by updating the stack. The storage instances <em>(StorageInstance)</em> form the core of the HDFS, ZooKeeper quorum, and HBase storage. Extra storage instances <em>(StorageInstanceExtra)</em> can be added to the cluster by updating the stack. They cannot be removed once they are spinned up.</p><p>PredictionIO Event Server will be launched on all storage instances.</p><h3 id='networking' class='header-anchors'>Networking</h3><p>The stack will automatically create a VPC and a subnet with an Internet gateway. All cluster instances will be launched inside this subnet using a single security group that enables all TCP communications among all instances within the same group. All compute instances (including those that are launched after stack creation) will receive public IPs. All core storage instances will receive public Elastic IPs.</p><h2 id='step-by-step' class='header-anchors'>Step-by-Step</h2><p>First, you need to have an active Amazon Web Services account with permissions to use the following services:</p> <ul> <li>Auto Scaling</li> <li>CloudFormation</li> <li>EC2</li> <li>VPC</li> </ul> <h3 id='subscribe-to-predictionio-cluster' class='header-anchors'>Subscribe to PredictionIO Cluster</h3><p>Before you can start using PredictionIO CloudFormation template, you will need to subscribe to PredictionIO Cluster AMI through AWS Marketplace. To subscribe, go to this <a href="https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/B00S74CY0A">link</a>. Click the yellow &quot;Continue&quot; button on the next screen.</p><p><img alt="AWS Marketplace Subscription Page" src="/images/cloudformation/awsmp-1-609eb919.png"/></p><p>In the next screen, click the &quot;Manual Launch&quot; tab, then select your preferred pricing model.

You should see everything functional.</p></li> <li><p>Run through the section <strong>Create a Sample App</strong> as described. The installation directory of PredictionIO is <code>/opt/PredictionIO</code>.</p></li> <li><p>Run through the section <strong>Collecting Data</strong> as described, except that you will be connecting to the Event Server at the master core storage instance. Assuming the private IP of the master core storage instance is <code>10.0.0.123</code>, add <code>--url http://10.0.0.123:7070</code> to the <code>import_eventserver.py</code> command.</p></li> <li><p>Copy HBase configuration to the engine template directory. The full path of the configuration file is <code>/opt/hbase-0.98.9-hadoop2/conf/hbase-site.xml</code>. (This step will not be required in future releases.)</p></li> <li><p>Run through the section <strong>Deploy the Engine as a Service</strong> up to the subsection <strong>Training</strong>. Assuming the private DNS name of the master compute instance is <code>ip-10-0-0-234.ec2.internal</code>, add <code>-- --master spark://ip-10-0-0-234.ec2.internal:7077</code> after the <code>pio train</code> command. This will send the training to the compute cluster instead of the local machine. The Spark master URL must match exactly the one shown on its web UI. Repeat the same steps for subsection <strong>Deploying</strong>, which will create an Engine Server backed by the compute cluster.</p></li> </ol> <h2 id='scaling-the-cluster' class='header-anchors'>Scaling the Cluster</h2><p>As your data size and/or audience grow, you can scale your cluster to handle more workload or decrease turnaround time. In this section, we will provide some general guidelines about when and how to scale your cluster with CloudFormation.</p><h3 id='scaling-compute-instances' class='header-anchors'>Scaling Compute Instances</h3><p>You can increase compute instances to reduce training time <em>($pio train)</em> and the time to query an engine server. You can also check the [Spark Master Web UI] to see if you need additional compute power.</p><p>Notice that for compute instances, you can increase or decrease the number of extra compute instances <em>(ComputeInstanceExtra)</em> as much as you like. The extra compute instances will join the master and become slave compute instances as Spark workers.</p><p>Let us begin by adding 2 extra compute instances. At the CloudFormation console, right click on the cluster stack and click on <strong>Update Stack</strong>.</p><p><img alt="Updating Stack to Add Extra Compute Instances" src="/images/cloudformation/compute-1-c572ea84.png"/></p><p>At the <strong>Select Template</strong> screen, make sure <strong>Use existing template</strong> is picked, then click <strong>Next</strong>.</p><p>At the <strong>Specify Parameters</strong> screen, increase the value of <strong>ComputeInstanceExtra</strong> to <strong>2</strong>, then click <strong>Next</strong>.</p><p><img alt="Adding 2 Extra Compute Instances" src="/images/cloudformation/compute-2-f7da8e72.png"/></p><p>At the <strong>Options</strong> screen, leave everything unchanged, and click <strong>Next</strong>.</p><p>At the <strong>Review</strong> screen, make sure <strong>ComputeInstanceExtra</strong> is now updated to <strong>2</strong>.

Notice that during the update, your cluster is still functional and any existing work will not be affected. If you are downscaling, existing work might be affected during the update process.</p><h3 id='scaling-storage-instances' class='header-anchors'>Scaling Storage Instances</h3><p>You can scale your storage instances when you are about to run out of space.
