 <p><strong>Event Server</strong> is designed to collect data into Apache

PredictionIO&#39;s SDKs.</p><div class="alert-message info"><p>All Apache

a quick configuration can be found <a href="/ins

than 30 seconds) after HBase is started for its initialization to complete 
before starting the Event Server.</p></div><p>Everything about Apache

its initialization to complete before starting the Event
