Running machine learning (ML) workloads with containers is becoming a common practice. Containers can fully encapsulate not just your training code, but the entire dependency stack down to the hardware libraries and drivers. What you get is an ML development environment that is consistent and portable. With containers, scaling on a cluster becomes much easier. […]

Amazon SageMaker provides a broad selection of machine learning (ML) infrastructure and model deployment options to help meet your ML inference needs. It’s a fully-managed service and integrates with MLOps tools so you can work to scale your model deployment, reduce inference costs, manage models more effectively in production, and reduce operational burden. SageMaker provides […]

Healthcare data is complex and siloed, and exists in various formats. An estimated 80% of data within organizations is considered to be unstructured or “dark” data that is locked inside text, emails, PDFs, and scanned documents. This data is difficult to interpret or analyze programmatically and limits how organizations can derive insights from it and […]

New generations of CPUs offer a significant performance improvement in machine learning (ML) inference due to specialized built-in instructions. Combined with their flexibility, high speed of development, and low operating cost, these general-purpose processors offer an alternative to other existing hardware solutions. AWS, Arm, Meta and others helped optimize the performance of PyTorch 2.0 inference […]

Amazon SageMaker Studio is the first fully integrated development environment (IDE) for ML. It provides a single, web-based visual interface where you can perform all machine learning (ML) development steps required to build, train, tune, debug, deploy, and monitor models. It gives data scientists all the tools you need to take ML models from experimentation […]

Deep learning (DL) is a fast-evolving field, and practitioners are constantly innovating DL models and inventing ways to speed them up. Custom operators are one of the mechanisms developers use to push the boundaries of DL innovation by extending the functionality of existing machine learning (ML) frameworks such as PyTorch. In general, an operator describes […]

With the advent of high-speed 5G mobile networks, enterprises are more easily positioned than ever with the opportunity to harness the convergence of telecommunications networks and the cloud. As one of the most prominent use cases to date, machine learning (ML) at the edge has allowed enterprises to deploy ML models closer to their end-customers […]

Online fraud has a widespread impact on businesses and requires an effective end-to-end strategy to detect and prevent new account fraud and account takeovers, and stop suspicious payment transactions. In this post, we show a serverless approach to detect online transaction fraud in near-real time. We show how you can apply this approach to various data streaming and event-driven architectures, depending on the desired outcome and actions to take to prevent fraud (such as alert the user about the fraud or flag the transaction for additional review).
