| title: Launching PredictionIO on AWS |
| --- |
| |
| Deploying PredictionIO on Amazon Web Services is extremely easy thanks |
| to AWS Marketplace. As long as you have access to AWS, you can launch a |
| ready-to-use PredictionIO Amazon EC2 instance with a single click. |
| |
| ## Prerequisites |
| |
| * Amazon Web Services account |
| * Amazon EC2 |
| |
| ## Access AWS Marketplace |
| |
| Visit [PredictionIO product's page on AWS |
| Marketplace](https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/B00RPIFSYS/) and sign in with |
| your AWS account. |
| |
| ## Using 1-Click Launch |
| |
| You should see the following screen after you have logged in. |
| |
|  |
| |
| Under the big yellow "Continue" botton, select the region where you want to |
| launch the PredictionIO EC2 instance, then click "Continue". |
| |
|  |
| |
| Review your instance's settings before launching. For quick prototyping work, |
| we recommend using at least the "Standard Medium (m1.medium)" instance type. |
| For larger loads, use "Standard Large (m1.large)" or "Standard XL (m1.xlarge)". |
| |
| ## Setting Security Group |
| |
| The default security group, marked by "AutogenByAWSMP", has the following ports |
| opened to public: |
| |
| * 22 (SSH) |
| * 7070 (PredictionIO Event Server) |
| * 8000 (PredictionIO Server) |
| * 8080 (Spark Master) |
| * 9200 (Elasticsearch) |
| |
| ## Start Using PredictionIO |
| |
| It may take a few minutes after the EC2 instance has launched for all |
| PredictionIO components to become ready. When they are ready, you may connect to |
| your instance, see [AWS |
| documentation](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/ec2-connect-to-instance-linux.html) |
| for more details. |
| |
| Once you connect to your instance, you can find PredictionIO at |
| `/opt/PredictionIO` and the binary command path is `/opt/PredictionIO/bin`. |
| |
| NOTE: The following link will bring you to the recommendation engine quick |
| start. Remember, the AWS instance will have everything automatically started for |
| you, so you could safely skip the **Install and Run PredictionIO** section. |
