Hierarchical Forecasting using Amazon SageMaker

Time series forecasting is a common problem in machine learning (ML) and statistics. Some common day-to-day use cases of time series forecasting involve predicting product sales, item demand, component supply, service tickets, and all as a function of time. More often than not, time series data follows a hierarchical aggregation structure. For example, in retail, […]

Plan the locations of green car charging stations with an Amazon SageMaker built-in algorithm

While the fuel economy of new gasoline or diesel-powered vehicles improves every year, green vehicles are considered even more environmentally friendly because they’re powered by alternative fuel or electricity. Hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), battery only electric vehicles (BEVs), fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs), hydrogen cars, and solar cars are all considered types of green vehicles. […]

Roundup of re:Invent 2021 Amazon SageMaker announcements

At re:Invent 2021, AWS announced several new Amazon SageMaker features that make machine learning (ML) accessible to new types of users while continuing to increase performance and reduce cost for data scientists and ML experts. In this post, we provide a summary of these announcements, along with resources for you to get more details on […]

Create and manage Amazon EMR Clusters from SageMaker Studio to run interactive Spark and ML workloads – Part 2

In Part 1 of this series, we offered step-by-step guidance for creating, connecting, stopping, and debugging Amazon EMR clusters from Amazon SageMaker Studio in a single-account setup. In this post, we dive deep into how you can use the same functionality in certain enterprise-ready, multi-account setups. As described in the AWS Well-Architected Framework, separating workloads […]

Create and manage Amazon EMR Clusters from SageMaker Studio to run interactive Spark and ML workloads – Part 1

February 2024: This blog post was reviewed and updated to include an updated AWS CloudFormation stack to comply with a recent Python3.7 lambda deprecation policy. Amazon SageMaker Studio is the first fully integrated development environment (IDE) for machine learning (ML). It provides a single, web-based visual interface where you can perform all ML development steps, […]

Build MLOps workflows with Amazon SageMaker projects, GitLab, and GitLab pipelines

Machine learning operations (MLOps) are key to effectively transition from an experimentation phase to production. The practice provides you the ability to create a repeatable mechanism to build, train, deploy, and manage machine learning models. To quickly adopt MLOps, you often require capabilities that use your existing toolsets and expertise. Projects in Amazon SageMaker give […]

Bring Your Amazon SageMaker model into Amazon Redshift for remote inference

June 2023: This post was reviewed and updated for accuracy. Amazon Redshift, a fast, fully managed, widely used cloud data warehouse, natively integrates with Amazon SageMaker for machine learning (ML). Tens of thousands of customers use Amazon Redshift to process exabytes of data every day to power their analytics workloads. Data analysts and database developers […]
