Step-by-Step Guide to Deploying ML Models on AWS SageMaker
Set Up Your AWS Environment
- Prerequisites: Ensure you have an active AWS account and access to AWS Management Console.
- IAM Role: Create an IAM role with appropriate SageMaker permissions.
- SageMaker Studio: Launch SageMaker Studio for a comprehensive ML environment.
Prepare Your Data
- Data Upload: Use Amazon S3 to store your datasets securely.
- Data Processing: Leverage SageMaker Processing Jobs for data cleaning and feature engineering.
- Example Code:
import boto3
s3 = boto3.client('s3')
s3.upload_file('data.csv', 'your-bucket-name', 'data/data.csv')
Train Your Model
- Select an Algorithm: Choose from built-in algorithms or bring your own.
- Training Job: Create a training job using SageMaker’s high-performance infrastructure.
- Example Code:
from sagemaker.debugger import Rule, ProfilerRule, rule_configs
from sagemaker.session import TrainingInput
import sagemaker
session = sagemaker.Session()
s3_output_location = "s3://dir1/dir2/output"
region = "us-east-1"
container = sagemaker.image_uris.retrieve("xgboost", region, "1.5-1")
print(container)
role = "arn:aws:iam::111222111222:role/Sagemaker_Access"
xgb_model = sagemaker.estimator.Estimator(
image_uri=container,
role=role,
instance_count=1,
instance_type="ml.m5.large",
volume_size=20,
output_path=s3_output_location,
framework_version='2.3.0',
sagemaker_session=session,
rules=[
Rule.sagemaker(rule_configs.create_xgboost_report()),
ProfilerRule.sagemaker(rule_configs.ProfilerReport())
]
)
xgb_model.set_hyperparameters(
max_depth=5,
eta=0.2,
gamma=4,
min_child_weight=6,
subsample=0.7,
objective="reg:squarederror",
num_round=100
)
train_input = TrainingInput(
"s3://data /dir1/cleaned_dataset.csv", content_type="csv"
)
validation_input = TrainingInput(
"s3://data /dir1/validate_dataset.csv", content_type="csv"
)
xgb_model.fit({"train": train_input, "validation": validation_input}, wait=True)
Deploy Your Model
- Model Endpoint: Deploy the trained model to a real-time endpoint.
- Endpoint Scaling: Use auto-scaling for optimal performance.
- Example Code:
import sagemaker
from sagemaker.serializers import CSVSerializer
xgb_predictor=xgb_model.deploy(
initial_instance_count=1,
instance_type='ml.t2.medium',
serializer=CSVSerializer()
)
xgb_predictor.endpoint_name
Monitor and Optimize
- Metrics Tracking: Use CloudWatch for endpoint monitoring.
- Model Tuning: Adjust hyperparameters for better accuracy.
- Example Code:
