Updates to AWS Deep Learning Containers for TensorFlow (1.15.2 & 2.1.0), PyTorch 1.4.0, and MXNet 1.6.0

Posted on: Mar 24, 2020

The AWS Deep Learning Containers are available today with the latest framework versions of TensorFlow 2.1.0 & 1.15.2, PyTorch 1.4.0, and MXNet 1.6.0 . The release includes the addition of Amazon SageMaker Python SDK in the containers, and updates to the Amazon SageMaker Experiments package. Amazon SageMaker Experiments is a feature in Amazon SageMaker that lets you organize, track, compare, and evaluate machine learning (ML) experiments and model versions. The TensorFlow 2.1.0 python3 training containers now also include SageMaker Debugger, which allow data scientists to save and inspect the model tensors during training jobs.

You can launch the new versions of the Deep Learning Containers on Amazon SageMaker, Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS), self-managed Kubernetes on Amazon EC2, and Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS). For a complete list of frameworks, end-of-life announcements, and versions supported by the AWS Deep Learning Containers, see release notes for PyTorch 1.4.0, MXNet 1.6.0, TensorFlow 2.1.0, and TensorFlow 1.15.2.
