In this post, we describe how to create an MLOps workflow for batch inference that automates job scheduling, model monitoring, retraining, and registration, as well as error handling and notification by using Amazon SageMaker, Amazon EventBridge, AWS Lambda, Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS), HashiCorp Terraform, and GitLab CI/CD. The presented MLOps workflow provides a reusable template for managing the ML lifecycle through automation, monitoring, auditability, and scalability, thereby reducing the complexities and costs of maintaining batch inference workloads in production.

As part of the 2023 Data Science Conference (DSCO 23), AWS partnered with the Data Institute at the University of San Francisco (USF) to conduct a datathon. Participants, both high school and undergraduate students, competed on a data science project that focused on air quality and sustainability. The Data Institute at the USF aims to support cross-disciplinary research and education in the field of data science. The Data Institute and the Data Science Conference provide a distinctive fusion of cutting-edge academic research and the entrepreneurial culture of the technology industry in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Today, we’re pleased to announce the preview of Amazon SageMaker Profiler, a capability of Amazon SageMaker that provides a detailed view into the AWS compute resources provisioned during training deep learning models on SageMaker. With SageMaker Profiler, you can track all activities on CPUs and GPUs, such as CPU and GPU utilizations, kernel runs on GPUs, kernel launches on CPUs, sync operations, memory operations across GPUs, latencies between kernel launches and corresponding runs, and data transfer between CPUs and GPUs. In this post, we walk you through the capabilities of SageMaker Profiler.

In this post, we walk you through importing data from, and exporting data to, an S3 access point in SageMaker Data Wrangler.

In this post, we discuss how to implement federated learning on Amazon SageMaker to run ML with decentralized training data.

In this post, we show how to improve model explainability in clinical settings using Amazon SageMaker Clarify. Explainability of machine learning (ML) models used in the medical domain is becoming increasingly important because models need to be explained from a number of perspectives in order to gain adoption. These perspectives range from medical, technological, legal, and the most important perspective—the patient’s. Models developed on text in the medical domain have become accurate statistically, yet clinicians are ethically required to evaluate areas of weakness related to these predictions in order to provide the best care for individual patients. Explainability of these predictions is required in order for clinicians to make the correct choices on a patient-by-patient basis.

We are happy to announce that SageMaker Data Wrangler now supports using Lake Formation with Amazon EMR to provide this fine-grained data access restriction.

Amazon Redshift is the most popular cloud data warehouse that is used by tens of thousands of customers to analyze exabytes of data every day. Many practitioners are extending these Redshift datasets at scale for machine learning (ML) using Amazon SageMaker, a fully managed ML service, with requirements to develop features offline in a code […]

MLOps is a key discipline that often oversees the path to productionizing machine learning (ML) models. It’s natural to focus on a single model that you want to train and deploy. However, in reality, you’ll likely work with dozens or even hundreds of models, and the process may involve multiple complex steps. Therefore, it’s important […]

In this post, we demonstrate how to train self-supervised vision transformers on overhead imagery using Amazon SageMaker. Travelers collaborated with the Amazon Machine Learning Solutions Lab (now known as the Generative AI Innovation Center) to develop this framework to support and enhance aerial imagery model use cases.
