Tens of thousands of customers rely on AWS for building machine learning (ML) applications. Customers like Airbnb and Pinterest use AWS to optimize their search recommendations, Lyft and Toyota Research Institute to develop their autonomous vehicle programs, and Capital One and Intuit to build and deploy AI-powered customer assistants. AWS offers the broadest and deepest […]

As a multiplayer game publisher, you may often need to either over-provision resources or manually manage compute allocation when launching or maintaining an online game to avoid long player wait times. You need to develop, configure, and deploy tools that help you monitor and control the compute allocation. This post demonstrates GameServer Autopilot, a new […]

When it comes to running distributed machine learning (ML) workloads, AWS offers you both managed and self-service offerings. Amazon SageMaker is a managed service that can help engineering, data science, and research teams save time and reduce operational overhead. AWS ParallelCluster is an open-source, self-service cluster management tool for customers who wish to maintain more […]

Amazon SageMaker is a fully managed platform that enables developers and data scientists to quickly and easily build, train, and deploy machine learning (ML) models at any scale. When you deploy an ML model, Amazon SageMaker leverages ML hosting instances to host the model and provides an API endpoint to provide inferences. It may also […]

This post offers a dive deep into how to use Amazon Elastic Inference with Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service. When you combine Elastic Inference with EKS, you can run low-cost, scalable inference workloads with your preferred container orchestration system. Elastic Inference is an increasingly popular way to run low-cost inference workloads on AWS. It allows you […]

Bewgle is an SAP.iO, Techstars-funded company that uses AWS services to surface insights from user-generated text and audio streams. Bewgle generates insights to help product managers to increase customer satisfaction and engagement with their various products—beauty, electronics, or anything in between.  By listening to the voices of their customers with the help of Bewgle powered […]

You’ve collected your datasets, designed your deep neural network architecture, and coded your training routines. You are now ready to run training on a large dataset for multiple epochs on a powerful GPU instance. You learn that the Amazon EC2 P3 instances with NVIDIA Tesla V100 GPUs are ideal for compute-intensive deep learning training jobs, […]

In a previous post, Ben Snively and Viral Desai showed us how to build a social media dashboard using serverless technology. The social media dashboard reads tweets with the #AWS hashtag, uses machine learning based services to do translation, and natural language processing (NLP) to determine topics, entities, and sentiment analysis. Finally, it aggregates this […]

A key barrier to the wider adoption of deep neural networks on industrial-size datasets is the time and resources required to train them. AlexNet, which won the 2012 ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Competition (ILSVRC) and kicked off the current boom in deep neural networks, took nearly a week to train across the 1.2-million-image, 1000-category […]

Vehicles with self-driving technology can bring many benefits to society. One of the top priorities at Toyota Research Institute (TRI) is to apply the latest advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) to help Toyota produce cars that are safer, more accessible, and more environmentally friendly. To help TRI achieve their goals, they turned to deep learning […]
