Machine Learning Engineering on AWS

By: Joshua Arvin Lat

Overview of this book

There is a growing need for professionals with experience in working on machine learning (ML) engineering requirements as well as those with knowledge of automating complex MLOps pipelines in the cloud. This book explores a variety of AWS services, such as Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service, AWS Glue, AWS Lambda, Amazon Redshift, and AWS Lake Formation, which ML practitioners can leverage to meet various data engineering and ML engineering requirements in production. This machine learning book covers the essential concepts as well as step-by-step instructions that are designed to help you get a solid understanding of how to manage and secure ML workloads in the cloud. As you progress through the chapters, you’ll discover how to use several container and serverless solutions when training and deploying TensorFlow and PyTorch deep learning models on AWS. You’ll also delve into proven cost optimization techniques as well as data privacy and model privacy preservation strategies in detail as you explore best practices when using each AWS. By the end of this AWS book, you'll be able to build, scale, and secure your own ML systems and pipelines, which will give you the experience and confidence needed to architect custom solutions using a variety of AWS services for ML engineering requirements.

Using the Debugger Insights Dashboard

When working on ML requirements, ML practitioners may encounter a variety of issues before coming up with a high-performing ML model. Like software development and programming, building ML models requires a bit of trial and error. Developers generally make use of a variety of debugging tools to help them troubleshoot issues and implementation errors when writing software applications. Similarly, ML practitioners need a way to monitor and debug training jobs when building ML models. Luckily for us, Amazon SageMaker has a capability called SageMaker Debugger that allows us to troubleshoot different issues and bottlenecks when training ML models:

Figure 6.24 – SageMaker Debugger features

The preceding diagram shows the features that are available when we use SageMaker Debugger to monitor, debug, and troubleshoot a variety of issues that affect an ML model’s performance. This includes the data capture capability...
