AWS It seeks to extend its location in the market with Updates to sagemakerAutomated learning, models training platform of artificial intelligence and inference, with the addition of new possibilities for observation, connected coding environments and the management of the GPU performance.
However, AWS continues to face competition from Google and MicrosoftAnd that also provides many features that help accelerate artificial intelligence training and inference.
Sagemaker, which Convert to a unified center To integrate data sources and access automated learning tools in 2024, it will add features that provide insight into the reason why the model performance provides AWS clients more control of the amount of account allocated to the development of models.
Other new features include the connection of local integrated development environments (IDES) to Sagemaker, so that locally written AI projects can be published on the platform.
The Director General of Sagemaker Ankur Mehrotra Venturebeat told many of these new updates originated from the customers themselves.
“One of the challenges we have seen is to confront our customers while developing Gen AI models is that when something wrong or when nothing does it does, it is really difficult to find what is going on in that layer of stack.”
Hyperpod sagemaker monitoring enabled engineers to examine the different layers of the stack, such as an account layer or layer of networks. If something wrong occurs or the models become slower, the sagemaker can alert them and publish standards on the dashboard.
Mahletra referred to a real issue that his team faced while training new models, as the training code began to emphasize graphics processing units, causing temperature fluctuations. He said that without the latest tools, the developers took weeks to determine the source of the problem and then fix it.
IDes connected
Sagemaker has already shown two ways for artificial intelligence developers to train and operate models. It was fully accessible to IDES, such as JuPYTER LAB or the programming instructor editor, to run the training code smm on the models through Sagemaker. Understand that other engineers prefer to use local IDES, including all the extensions they installed, AWS allowed them to run their code on their devices as well.
However, Mehrotra indicated that it means that locally encrypted models were operated locally only, so if the developers want to expand, it has proven to be a major challenge.
AWS has added a new safe implementation to allow customers to continue working on their preferred IDE – either local or managed – and connect to Sagemaker.
“So this ability now gives them the best in the two worlds where if they want, they can develop locally on the local IDE, but with regard to carrying out the actual task, they can benefit from the ability to expand in Sagemaker,” he said.
More flexibility in the account
Aws Sagemaker Hyperpod launched in December 2023 As a way to help customers manage servers groups for training forms. Similar to service providers CoruvHyperPod enables Sagemaker customers to direct unused energy to their favorite location. HyperPod is known when the date for the use of GPU must be determined on the basis of demand patterns and allows institutions to balance their resources and costs effectively.
However, AWS said many customers want the same service to infer. Many of the inference tasks occur during the day when people use models and applications, while training is usually scheduled during peak hours.
Mahletra notes that even in the world, developers can give priority to the inferiority tasks on which HyperPod should focus on.
Laurent Sever, co -founder and CTO at AI Agent Company H ofHe said in the AWS blog that the company used Sagemaker Hyperpod when building the agent platform.
“This smooth transition from training to reasoning simplifying our workflow, reducing time to production, and providing consistent performance in living environments,” said Seifry.
AWS and competition
Amazon may not offer the most amazing foundation models like its competitors from the cloud provider, Google and Microsoft. However, AWS may focus more on providing the backbone of the infrastructure of the institutions for construction Artificial intelligence models, applications or agents.
In addition to sagemaker, AWS also Provides the foundationA platform specifically designed to build applications and agents.
Sagemaker had been present for years, starting initially as a way to connect the varying machine learning tools to data lakes. When I started the Truc Artificial Intelligence Book, artificial intelligence engineers began to use Sagemaker to help train language models. However, Microsoft pushes strongly for its ecological system, With 70 % of Fortune 500 it adoptsTo become a pioneer in data and an artificial intelligence acceleration space. Google, through Vertex AI, quietly made Driving in the adoption of the artificial intelligence institution.
AWS, of course, has the advantage of being The most widely used cloud provider. Any updates that will make many artificial intelligence infrastructure platforms easier to use will always be useful.
