Today at AWS re:Invent 2024, we are excited to announce the new Container Caching capability in Amazon SageMaker, which significantly reduces the time required to scale generative AI  models for inference. This innovation allows you to scale your models faster, observing up to 56% reduction in latency when scaling a new model copy and up to 30% when adding a model copy on a new instance. In this post, we explore the new Container Caching feature for SageMaker inference, addressing the challenges of deploying and scaling large language models (LLMs).

Chronos models are available for Amazon SageMaker customers through AutoGluon-TimeSeries and Amazon SageMaker JumpStart. In this post, we introduce Chronos-Bolt, our latest FM for forecasting that has been integrated into AutoGluon-TimeSeries.

Amazon Finance Automation developed a large language model (LLM)-based question-answer chat assistant on Amazon Bedrock. This solution empowers analysts to rapidly retrieve answers to customer queries, generating prompt responses within the same communication thread. As a result, it drastically reduces the time required to address customer queries. In this post, we share how Amazon Finance Automation built this generative AI Q&A chat assistant using Amazon Bedrock.

In this post, we present a generative AI-powered semantic search solution that empowers business users to quickly and accurately find relevant data assets across various enterprise data sources. In this solution, we integrate large language models (LLMs) hosted on Amazon Bedrock backed by a knowledge base that is derived from a knowledge graph built on Amazon Neptune to create a powerful search paradigm that enables natural language-based questions to integrate search across documents stored in Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3), data lake tables hosted on the AWS Glue Data Catalog, and enterprise assets in Amazon DataZone.

In this post, we demonstrate Embodied AI Chess with Amazon Bedrock, bringing a new dimension to traditional chess through generative AI capabilities. Our setup features a smart chess board that can detect moves in real time, paired with two robotic arms executing those moves. Each arm is controlled by different FMs—base or custom. This physical implementation allows you to observe and experiment with how different generative AI models approach complex gaming strategies in real-world chess matches.

In this post, we demonstrate how the Amazon SageMaker model parallel library (SMP) addresses this need through support for new features such as 8-bit floating point (FP8) mixed-precision training for accelerated training performance and context parallelism for processing large input sequence lengths, expanding the list of its existing features.

In this post, we explore how Amazon Bedrock Agents simplify the orchestration of generative AI workflows, particularly with the introduction of the custom orchestrator feature. You can use the custom orchestrator to fine-tune and optimize agentic workflows that align more closely with specific business and operational needs. We outline the feature’s key benefits, including full control over orchestration, real-time adjustments, and reusability, followed by a breakdown of how it manages state transitions and contract-based interactions between Amazon Bedrock Agents and AWS Lambda.

For enterprises in the realm of cloud computing and software development, providing secure code repositories is essential. As sophisticated cybersecurity threats become more prevalent, organizations must adopt proactive measures to protect their assets. Amazon Bedrock offers a powerful solution by automating the process of scanning repositories for vulnerabilities and remediating them. This post explores how you can use Amazon Bedrock to enhance the security of your repositories and maintain compliance with organizational and regulatory standards.

In this post, we walk through the steps to deploy the Meta Llama 3.1-8B model on Inferentia 2 instances using Amazon EKS. This solution combines the exceptional performance and cost-effectiveness of Inferentia 2 chips with the robust and flexible landscape of Amazon EKS. Inferentia 2 chips deliver high throughput and low latency inference, ideal for LLMs.

The use of large language models (LLMs) and generative AI has exploded over the last year. With the release of powerful publicly available foundation models, tools for training, fine tuning and hosting your own LLM have also become democratized. Using vLLM on AWS Trainium and Inferentia makes it possible to host LLMs for high performance […]
