Amazon SageMaker AI Async Inference now supports inline request payloads
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.
Introducing container caching in Amazon SageMaker AI for faster model scaling
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.
Parallelize speculative decoding with P-EAGLE on Amazon SageMaker AI
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.
Scale Robot Reinforcement Learning with NVIDIA Isaac Lab on Amazon SageMaker AI
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.
End-to-end encrypted ML inference with Amazon SageMaker AI and FHE
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.
Improve your agent’s tool-calling accuracy with SFT and DPO on Amazon SageMaker AI
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.
Comprehensive observability for Amazon SageMaker AI LLM inference: From GPU utilization to LLM 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.
Training Azerbaijani language models on Amazon SageMaker AI
Azercell Telecom LLC, Azerbaijan’s leading telecommunications provider, wanted to build an Azerbaijani large language model (LLM) on Amazon SageMaker AI for telecom use cases and a customer-facing chatbot. The challenge: adapting foundation models (FMs) to a morphologically rich language with limited training data and no existing blueprint for efficient LLM training in Azerbaijani. In a six-week collaboration, Azercell worked with the AWS Generative AI Innovation Center to establish a production-ready framework on Amazon SageMaker AI.
Announcing OpenAI-compatible API support for Amazon SageMaker AI endpoints
Today, Amazon SageMaker AI introduces OpenAI-compatible API support for real-time inference endpoints. If you use the OpenAI SDK, LangChain, or Strands Agents, you can now invoke models on SageMaker AI by changing only your endpoint URL. You don’t need a custom client, a SigV4 wrapper, or code rewrites. Overview With this launch, SageMaker AI endpoints […]
Fine-tune LLM with Databricks Unity Catalog and Amazon SageMaker AI
In this post, we demonstrate how to build a secure, complete LLM fine-tuning workflow that integrates Unity Catalog with Amazon SageMaker AI using Amazon EMR Serverless for preprocessing. The solution shows how to securely access governed data, maintain lineage across services, fine-tune the Ministral-3-3B-Instruct model, and register trained artifacts back into Unity Catalog. With this approach, you can continue using your existing services while preserving central governance, tracking data lineage without compromising security or compliance requirements.
