In this post, we demonstrate how to fine-tune Meta’s latest Llama 3.2 text generation models, Llama 3.2 1B and 3B, using Amazon SageMaker JumpStart for domain-specific applications. By using the pre-built solutions available in SageMaker JumpStart and the customizable Meta Llama 3.2 models, you can unlock the models’ enhanced reasoning, code generation, and instruction-following capabilities to tailor them for your unique use cases.

This post is cowritten with Mones Raslan, Ravi Sharma and Adele Gouttes from Zalando. Zalando SE is one of Europe’s largest ecommerce fashion retailers with around 50 million active customers. Zalando faces the challenge of regular (weekly or daily) discount steering for more than 1 million products, also referred to as markdown pricing. Markdown pricing is […]

Amazon SageMaker Ground Truth enables the creation of high-quality, large-scale training datasets, essential for fine-tuning across a wide range of applications, including large language models (LLMs) and generative AI. By integrating human annotators with machine learning, SageMaker Ground Truth significantly reduces the cost and time required for data labeling. Whether it’s annotating images, videos, or […]

In this post, we showcase how to fine-tune a sentence transformer specifically for classifying an Amazon product into its product category (such as toys or sporting goods). We showcase two different sentence transformers, paraphrase-MiniLM-L6-v2 and a proprietary Amazon large language model (LLM) called M5_ASIN_SMALL_V2.0, and compare their results.

This post is part of an ongoing series on governing the machine learning (ML) lifecycle at scale. To start from the beginning, refer to Governing the ML lifecycle at scale, Part 1: A framework for architecting ML workloads using Amazon SageMaker. A multi-account strategy is essential not only for improving governance but also for enhancing […]

This post presents an architectural approach to extract data from different cloud environments, such as Google Cloud Platform (GCP) BigQuery, without the need for data movement. This minimizes the complexity and overhead associated with moving data between cloud environments, enabling organizations to access and utilize their disparate data assets for ML projects. We highlight the process of using Amazon Athena Federated Query to extract data from GCP BigQuery, using Amazon SageMaker Data Wrangler to perform data preparation, and then using the prepared data to build ML models within Amazon SageMaker Canvas, a no-code ML interface.

In this post, we present a framework to customize the use of Amazon SageMaker Model Monitor for handling multi-payload inference requests for near real-time inference scenarios. SageMaker Model Monitor monitors the quality of SageMaker ML models in production. Early and proactive detection of deviations in model quality enables you to take corrective actions, such as retraining models, auditing upstream systems, or fixing quality issues without having to monitor models manually or build additional tooling.

In this post, we will explore building a reusable RAG data pipeline on LangChain—an open source framework for building applications based on LLMs—and integrating it with AWS Glue and Amazon OpenSearch Serverless. The end solution is a reference architecture for scalable RAG indexing and deployment.

In this post, we dive into a business use case for a banking institution. We will show you how a financial or business analyst at a bank can easily predict if a customer’s loan will be fully paid, charged off, or current using a machine learning model that is best for the business problem at hand.

Agentic workflows are a fresh new perspective in building dynamic and complex business use- case based workflows with the help of large language models (LLM) as their reasoning engine or brain. In this post, we set up an agent using Amazon Bedrock Agents to act as a software application builder assistant.
