In this post, we outline how to get started with deploying the Qwen 2.5 family of models on an Inferentia instance using Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) and Amazon SageMaker using the Hugging Face Text Generation Inference (TGI) container and the Hugging Face Optimum Neuron library. Qwen2.5 Coder and Math variants are also supported.

Today, we’re announcing the general availability (GA) of multi-agent collaboration on Amazon Bedrock. This capability allows developers to build, deploy, and manage networks of AI agents that work together to execute complex, multi-step workflows efficiently.

Today, Amazon Web Services (AWS) announced the general availability of Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Bases GraphRAG (GraphRAG), a capability in Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Bases that enhances Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) with graph data in Amazon Neptune Analytics. In this post, we discuss the benefits of GraphRAG and how to get started with it in Amazon Bedrock Knowledge Bases.

We’re excited to announce that Mistral-Small-24B-Instruct-2501—a twenty-four billion parameter large language model (LLM) from Mistral AI that’s optimized for low latency text generation tasks—is available for customers through Amazon SageMaker JumpStart and Amazon Bedrock Marketplace. In this post, we walk through how to discover, deploy, and use Mistral-Small-24B-Instruct-2501.

We are excited to announce that the Falcon 3 family of models from TII are available in Amazon SageMaker JumpStart. In this post, we explore how to deploy this model efficiently on Amazon SageMaker AI.

DeepSeek-R1 is an advanced large language model that combines reinforcement learning, chain-of-thought reasoning, and a Mixture of Experts architecture to deliver efficient, interpretable responses while maintaining safety through Amazon Bedrock Guardrails integration.

In this post, we demonstrate how to deploy distilled versions of DeepSeek-R1 models using Amazon Bedrock Custom Model Import. We focus on importing the variants currently supported DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Llama-8B and DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Llama-70B, which offer an optimal balance between performance and resource efficiency.

Today, we are excited to announce that the Llama 3.3 70B from Meta is available in Amazon SageMaker JumpStart. Llama 3.3 70B marks an exciting advancement in large language model (LLM) development, offering comparable performance to larger Llama versions with fewer computational resources. In this post, we explore how to deploy this model efficiently on Amazon SageMaker AI, using advanced SageMaker AI features for optimal performance and cost management.

In Part 1 of this series, we introduced the newly launched ModelTrainer class on the Amazon SageMaker Python SDK and its benefits, and showed you how to fine-tune a Meta Llama 3.1 8B model on a custom dataset. In this post, we look at the enhancements to the ModelBuilder class, which lets you seamlessly deploy a model from ModelTrainer to a SageMaker endpoint, and provides a single interface for multiple deployment configurations.

In this post, we focus on the ModelTrainer class for simplifying the training experience. The ModelTrainer class provides significant improvements over the current Estimator class, which are discussed in detail in this post. We show you how to use the ModelTrainer class to train your ML models, which includes executing distributed training using a custom script or container. In Part 2, we show you how to build a model and deploy to a SageMaker endpoint using the improved ModelBuilder class.
