Productionizing H2O

(Note: This section is a work in progress.)

About POJOs and MOJOs

H2O allows you to convert the models you have built to either a Plain Old Java Object (POJO) or a Model ObJect, Optimized (MOJO).

H2O-generated MOJO and POJO models are intended to be easily embeddable in any Java environment. The only compilation and runtime dependency for a generated model is the h2o-genmodel.jar file produced as the build output of these packages.

Users can refer to the following Quick Start files for more information about generating POJOs and MOJOs:

Note: MOJOs are supported for GBM, DRF, GLM, K-Means, and XGBoost models only.

Developers can refer to the the POJO and MOJO Model Javadoc.
