Amazon SageMaker JumpStart now offers Amazon Comprehend notebooks for custom classification and custom entity detection
Amazon Comprehend is a natural language processing (NLP) service that uses machine learning (ML) to discover insights from text. Amazon Comprehend provides customized features, custom entity recognition, custom classification, and pre-trained APIs such as key phrase extraction, sentiment analysis, entity recognition, and more so you can easily integrate NLP into your applications. We recently added […]
Use your own training scripts and automatically select the best model using hyperparameter optimization in Amazon SageMaker
The success of any machine learning (ML) pipeline depends not just on the quality of model used, but also the ability to train and iterate upon this model. One of the key ways to improve an ML model is by choosing better tunable parameters, known as hyperparameters. This is known as hyperparameter optimization (HPO). However, […]
Interactive data prep widget for notebooks powered by Amazon SageMaker Data Wrangler
According to a 2020 survey of data scientists conducted by Anaconda, data preparation is one of the critical steps in machine learning (ML) and data analytics workflows, and often very time consuming for data scientists. Data scientists spend about 66% of their time on data preparation and analysis tasks, including loading (19%), cleaning (26%), and […]
Organize machine learning development using shared spaces in SageMaker Studio for real-time collaboration
Amazon SageMaker Studio is the first fully integrated development environment (IDE) for machine learning (ML). It provides a single, web-based visual interface where you can perform all ML development steps, including preparing data and building, training, and deploying models. Within an Amazon SageMaker Domain, users can provision a personal Amazon SageMaker Studio IDE application, which […]
Improve governance of your machine learning models with Amazon SageMaker
As companies are increasingly adopting machine learning (ML) for their mainstream enterprise applications, more of their business decisions are influenced by ML models. As a result of this, having simplified access control and enhanced transparency across all your ML models makes it easier to validate that your models are performing well and take action when […]
Operationalize your Amazon SageMaker Studio notebooks as scheduled notebook jobs
Amazon SageMaker Studio provides a fully managed solution for data scientists to interactively build, train, and deploy machine learning (ML) models. In addition to the interactive ML experience, data workers also seek solutions to run notebooks as ephemeral jobs without the need to refactor code as Python modules or learn DevOps tools and best practices […]

Today we are excited to announce that AI21 Jurassic-1 (J1) foundation models are available for customers using Amazon SageMaker. Jurassic-1 models are highly versatile, capable of both human-like text generation, as well as solving complex tasks such as question answering, text classification, and many others. You can easily try out this model and use it […]
Optimize hyperparameters with Amazon SageMaker Automatic Model Tuning
Machine learning (ML) models are taking the world by storm. Their performance relies on using the right training data and choosing the right model and algorithm. But it doesn’t end here. Typically, algorithms defer some design decisions to the ML practitioner to adopt for their specific data and task. These deferred design decisions manifest themselves […]
Implementing Amazon Forecast in the retail industry: A journey from POC to production
Amazon Forecast is a fully managed service that uses statistical and machine learning (ML) algorithms to deliver highly accurate time-series forecasts. Recently, based on Amazon Forecast, we helped one of our retail customers achieve accurate demand forecasting, within 8 weeks. The solution improved the manual forecast by an average of 10% in regards to the […]
