Overview of Building a Model using SageMaker

Now if you remember, next in the workflow is building the model. To go back to the hub, AKA the SageMaker dashboard, you'll notice that notebooks are next. If you're familiar with it, SageMaker notebooks are basically managed Jupyter Notebook setups. Jupyter Notebook is what IPython notebooks rebranded to a few years back, if you've never heard of it. They also compete with a service called Zeplin, but SageMaker uses a pre-installed managed version of Jupyter. Now, just know that, although you're gonna build your notebook in SageMaker, Jupyter Notebooks are actually an open-sourced application that you can download and run yourself or run your in-house servers, several SageMakers, so you're not getting locked in.
