Overview of this book

Many IT leaders and professionals are adept at extracting data from a particular type of database and deriving value from it. However, designing and implementing an enterprise-wide holistic data platform with purpose-built data services, all seamlessly working in tandem with the least amount of manual intervention, still poses a challenge. This book will help you explore end-to-end solutions to common data, analytics, and AI/ML use cases by leveraging AWS services. The chapters systematically take you through all the building blocks of a modern data platform, including data lakes, data warehouses, data ingestion patterns, data consumption patterns, data governance, and AI/ML patterns. Using real-world use cases, each chapter highlights the features and functionalities of numerous AWS services to enable you to create a scalable, flexible, performant, and cost-effective modern data platform. By the end of this book, you’ll be equipped with all the necessary architectural patterns and be able to apply this knowledge to efficiently build a modern data platform for your organization using AWS services.

ML using Amazon SageMaker, along with use cases

One of the biggest barriers to ML adoption has been that not everyone in the organization understands how the ML process works or has the skill sets to build an end-to-end ML platform. Amazon SageMaker is a comprehensive ML service that helps different personas easily use the platform to build, train, and deploy ML models for any use case. Data scientists want to quickly prepare the data to train and build ML models. ML engineers want to quickly deploy and manage these models at scale. Business analysts want to make ML predictions without having to learn ML technologies. This is where Amazon SageMaker as an ML platform helps. It’s a collection of tools that make every step of the ML process easier, faster, and cheaper to implement for different personas in the organization. The following diagram depicts this aspect of SageMaker:
