Mastering Machine Learning on AWS

By: Dr. Saket S.R. Mengle, Maximo Gurmendez

Overview of this book

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is constantly driving new innovations that empower data scientists to explore a variety of machine learning (ML) cloud services. This book is your comprehensive reference for learning and implementing advanced ML algorithms in AWS cloud. As you go through the chapters, you’ll gain insights into how these algorithms can be trained, tuned, and deployed in AWS using Apache Spark on Elastic Map Reduce (EMR), SageMaker, and TensorFlow. While you focus on algorithms such as XGBoost, linear models, factorization machines, and deep nets, the book will also provide you with an overview of AWS as well as detailed practical applications that will help you solve real-world problems. Every application includes a series of companion notebooks with all the necessary code to run on AWS. In the next few chapters, you will learn to use SageMaker and EMR Notebooks to perform a range of tasks, right from smart analytics and predictive modeling through to sentiment analysis. By the end of this book, you will be equipped with the skills you need to effectively handle machine learning projects and implement and evaluate algorithms on AWS.

Deploying Models Built in AWS

At this point, we have built our models in AWS and would like to ship them to production. We know that there is a variety of different contexts in which models should be deployed. In some cases, it's as easy as generating a CSV of actions that would be fed to some system. Often, we just need to deploy a web service capable of making predictions. However, there are special circumstances in which we need to deploy these models to complex, low-latency, or edge systems. In this chapter, we will look at the different ways to deploy machine learning (ML) models to production.

In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:

  • SageMaker model deployment
  • Apache Spark model deployment
