Amazon SageMaker AI provides fully managed real-time inference hosting for machine learning models. You deploy a model to a SageMaker endpoint backed by one or more compute instances, and SageMaker handles provisioning and scaling. SageMaker supports multiple endpoint architectures. This post focuses on the two most relevant to generative AI workloads with detailed observability: Single-model endpoints (SME) and Inference component (IC) endpoints.

Today, we’re announcing inline payload support for Amazon SageMaker AI Async Inference. Customers can now send inference payloads directly in the request body of the InvokeEndpointAsync API, removing the need to upload input data to Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) before each invocation.

Today, we’re excited to announce container image caching for Amazon SageMaker AI inference, the next major advancement in our faster scaling optimization journey. This speeds up end-to-end latency by up to 2x for generative AI models during scale-out events.

This post walks you through how to use P-EAGLE directly within Amazon SageMaker AI. It will demonstrate how to select a compatible model from the SageMaker JumpStart catalog, configure the parallel drafting specifications, and deploy a highly optimized real-time SageMaker AI endpoint to accelerate your generative AI applications.

In this post, we show how to train robot policies for the Unitree H1 humanoid with NVIDIA Isaac Lab on Amazon SageMaker AI across two compute options: Amazon SageMaker HyperPod and Amazon SageMaker Training Jobs.

This blog has previously discussed FHE for ML inference in the post Enable fully homomorphic encryption with Amazon SageMaker endpoints for secure, real-time inferencing, but this post goes a little further. That previous post showed how to implement FHE-based inference ‘from scratch’ by hand-crafting a linear-regression algorithm using a low-level library called SEAL. Instead, this post shows a much more flexible and higher-level approach based on concrete-ml, a high-level library built specifically for FHE-based inference. It supports several common types of models ‘out of the box’ and is even API compatible with the well-known ML library scikit-learn.

Deploy NVIDIA Nemotron 3 Ultra on Amazon SageMaker JumpStart. Get 5x faster inference and 30% lower cost for agentic AI workloads with this frontier reasoning model.

In this post, we show you how to get started with NEXUS on Amazon SageMaker JumpStart, walk through the deployment process, and demonstrate how to run predictions against your enterprise datasets.

In this post, you learn how to use Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT) and Direct Preference Optimization (DPO) together to improve the tool-calling accuracy of a small language model (SLM). The example uses Amazon SageMaker AI training jobs, so you can focus on training code instead of managing your own training infrastructure. You also learn how to evaluate tool-calling accuracy and compare a base model to several fine-tuned variants, so you can make data-driven decisions about model quality.

This post demonstrates a comprehensive observability solution using Amazon Managed Grafana dashboards that provides a holistic view of both quality and quantity for LLMs served on Amazon SageMaker AI endpoints with inference components.
