One of the challenges encountered by teams using Amazon Lookout for Metrics is quickly and efficiently connecting it to data visualization. The anomalies are presented individually on the Lookout for Metrics console, each with their own graph, making it difficult to view the set as a whole. An automated, integrated solution is needed for deeper […]

After data scientists carefully come up with a satisfying machine learning (ML) model, the model must be deployed to be easily accessible for inference by other members of the organization. However, deploying models at scale with optimized cost and compute efficiencies can be a daunting and cumbersome task. Amazon SageMaker endpoints provide an easily scalable […]

Feature engineering is one of the most challenging aspects of the machine learning (ML) lifecycle and a phase where the most amount of time is spent—data scientists and ML engineers spend 60–70% of their time on feature engineering. AWS introduced Amazon SageMaker Feature Store during AWS re:Invent 2020, which is a purpose-built, fully managed, centralized […]

As new data privacy regulations like GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation, 2017) have come into effect, customers are under increased pressure to monetize media assets while abiding by the new rules. Monetizing media while respecting privacy regulations requires the ability to automatically extract granular metadata from assets like text, images, video, and audio files at […]

Today, social media is a huge source of news. Users rely on platforms like Facebook and Twitter to consume news. For certain industries such as insurance companies, first respondents, law enforcement, and government agencies, being able to quickly process news about relevant events occurring can help them take action while these events are still unfolding. […]

May 2026: The contents of this post are outdated. Please refer to End-to-end lineage with DVC and Amazon SageMaker AI MLflow apps. Data scientists often work towards understanding the effects of various data preprocessing and feature engineering strategies in combination with different model architectures and hyperparameters. Doing so requires you to cover large parameter spaces […]

April 2024: This post was reviewed and updated for accuracy. Imagine a surgeon taking video calls with patients across the globe without the need of a human translator. What if a fledgling startup could easily expand their product across borders and into new geographical markets by offering fluid, accurate, multilingual customer support and sales, all […]

If you use the default lifecycle configuration for your domain or user profile in Amazon SageMaker Studio and use Amazon SageMaker Data Wrangler for data preparation, then this post is for you. In this post, we show how you can create a Data Wrangler flow and use it for data preparation in a Studio environment […]

Predicting common machine failure types is critical in manufacturing industries. Given a set of characteristics of a product that is tied to a given type of failure, you can develop a model that can predict the failure type when you feed those attributes to a machine learning (ML) model. ML can help with insights, but […]

October 2023: Starting in April 26th, 2024, you can no longer access Amazon SageMaker Edge Manager. For more information about continuing to deploy your models to edge devices, see SageMaker Edge Manager end of life. Edge is a term that refers to a location, far from the cloud or a big data center, where you […]
