Introducing Amazon SageMaker Operators for Kubernetes Amazon Web Services

AWS is excited to introduce Amazon SageMaker Operators for Kubernetes, a new capability that makes it easier for developers and data scientists using Kubernetes to train, tune, and deploy machine learning (ML) models in Amazon SageMaker. Customers can install these Amazon SageMaker Operators on their Kubernetes cluster to create Amazon SageMaker jobs natively using the Kubernetes API and command-line Kubernetes tools such as'kubectl'. Many AWS customers use Kubernetes, an open-source general-purpose container orchestration system, to deploy and manage containerized applications, often via a managed service such as Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS). This enables data scientists and developers, for example, to set up repeatable ML pipelines and maintain greater control over their training and inference workloads. However, to support ML workloads these customers still need to write custom code to optimize the underlying ML infrastructure, ensure high availability and reliability, provide data science productivity tools, and comply with appropriate security and regulatory requirements.
