In this post, we demonstrate how to build an end-to-end solution for text classification using the Amazon Bedrock batch inference capability with the Anthropic’s Claude Haiku model. Amazon Bedrock batch inference offers a 50% discount compared to the on-demand price, which is an important factor when dealing with a largeContinue Reading
Amazon SageMaker Inference has been a popular tool for deploying advanced machine learning (ML) and generative AI models at scale. As AI applications become increasingly complex, customers want to deploy multiple models in a coordinated group that collectively process inference requests for an application. In addition, with the evolution ofContinue Reading
Modern generative AI model providers require unprecedented computational scale, with pre-training often involving thousands of accelerators running continuously for days, and sometimes months. Foundation Models (FMs) demand distributed training clusters — coordinated groups of accelerated compute instances, using frameworks like PyTorch — to parallelize workloads across hundreds of accelerators (likeContinue Reading
Large language models (LLMs) have revolutionized the way we interact with technology, but their widespread adoption has been blocked by high inference latency, limited throughput, and high costs associated with text generation. These inefficiencies are particularly pronounced during high-demand events like Amazon Prime Day, where systems like Rufus—the Amazon AI-poweredContinue Reading
PixArt-Sigma is a diffusion transformer model that is capable of image generation at 4k resolution. This model shows significant improvements over previous generation PixArt models like Pixart-Alpha and other diffusion models through dataset and architectural improvements. AWS Trainium and AWS Inferentia are purpose-built AI chips to accelerate machine learning (ML)Continue Reading

Today, we’re excited to announce the launch of Amazon SageMaker Large Model Inference (LMI) container v15, powered by vLLM 0.8.4 with support for the vLLM V1 engine. This version now supports the latest open-source models, such as Meta’s Llama 4 models Scout and Maverick, Google’s Gemma 3, Alibaba’s Qwen, MistralContinue Reading
Headquartered in São Paulo, Brazil, iFood is a national private company and the leader in food-tech in Latin America, processing millions of orders monthly. iFood has stood out for its strategy of incorporating cutting-edge technology into its operations. With the support of AWS, iFood has developed a robust machine learningContinue Reading
Amazon Bedrock cross-Region inference capability that provides organizations with flexibility to access foundation models (FMs) across AWS Regions while maintaining optimal performance and availability. However, some enterprises implement strict Regional access controls through service control policies (SCPs) or AWS Control Tower to adhere to compliance requirements, inadvertently blocking cross-Region inferenceContinue Reading
Deploying models efficiently, reliably, and cost-effectively is a critical challenge for organizations of all sizes. As organizations increasingly deploy foundation models (FMs) and other machine learning (ML) models to production, they face challenges related to resource utilization, cost-efficiency, and maintaining high availability during updates. Amazon SageMaker AI introduced inference componentContinue Reading
