An online bookshop prototype uses Prediction.io with an events server and engines (Universal Recommender template) to record view/like/add to basket/purchase actions, train nightly, and serve both “who bought this also bought” item similarities and per-user suggestions. Deployment uses an Amazon AMI or HBase/Elasticsearch (or MySQL/Postgres for smaller sites). Four engines are created initially to work around limitations; recommendations go live on product pages and power personalized emails and the client reports satisfaction.
