Amazon SageMaker Studio now supports automatic shutdown of idle applications
We are excited to announce that Amazon SageMaker Studio now supports automatically shutting down applications after a period of inactivity.
Starting today, administrators can configure idle shutdown time for JupyterLab and CodeEditor applications that use Amazon SageMaker Distribution image version 2.0 or newer. Administrators can set idle shutdown time on SageMaker domain or user profile level, and can optionally grant users flexibility to modify the idle shutdown time based on their specific use case. Once idle shutdown time is configured, SageMaker Studio will automatically detect when applications are idle and shut them down after specified period of inactivity. This functionality provides customers with an important cost control mechanism, helping them avoid incurring charges for instances that are not actively in use.
You can get started using this feature by configuring idle shutdown time for SageMaker Studio applications through the SageMaker Console or APIs. This feature is available in all Amazon Web Services regions where SageMaker Studio is currently available. To learn more, visit documentation.
