Mastering Machine Learning on AWS

Section 1: Machine Learning on AWS

The objective of this section is to introduce readers to machine learning in the context of AWS cloud computing and services. We expect our audience to have some basic knowledge of machine learning. However, we'll describe the nature of a typically successful machine learning project, and the challenges often faced. We will provide an overview of the different AWS services, along with examples of typical machine learning pipelines and the key aspects to consider in order to create smart AI-powered products.

This section contains the following chapter:

  • Chapter 1, Getting Started with Machine Learning for AWS

Key benefits

  • Build machine learning apps on AWS using SageMaker, Apache Spark, and TensorFlow
  • Learn model optimization and understand how to scale your models using simple and secure APIs
  • Develop, train, tune, and deploy neural network models to accelerate model performance in the cloud

Description

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is constantly driving new innovations that empower data scientists to explore a variety of machine learning (ML) cloud services. This book is your comprehensive reference for learning and implementing advanced ML algorithms in AWS cloud. As you go through the chapters, you’ll gain insights into how these algorithms can be trained, tuned, and deployed in AWS using Apache Spark on Elastic Map Reduce (EMR), SageMaker, and TensorFlow. While you focus on algorithms such as XGBoost, linear models, factorization machines, and deep nets, the book will also provide you with an overview of AWS as well as detailed practical applications that will help you solve real-world problems. Every application includes a series of companion notebooks with all the necessary code to run on AWS. In the next few chapters, you will learn to use SageMaker and EMR Notebooks to perform a range of tasks, right from smart analytics and predictive modeling through to sentiment analysis. By the end of this book, you will be equipped with the skills you need to effectively handle machine learning projects and implement and evaluate algorithms on AWS.

Who is this book for?

This book is for data scientists, machine learning developers, deep learning enthusiasts and AWS users who want to build advanced models and smart applications on the cloud using AWS and its integration services. Some understanding of machine learning concepts, Python programming and AWS will be beneficial.

What you will learn

  • Manage AI workflows by using AWS cloud to deploy services that feed smart data products
  • Use SageMaker services to create recommendation models
  • Scale model training and deployment using Apache Spark on EMR
  • Understand how to cluster big data through EMR and seamlessly integrate it with SageMaker
  • Build deep learning models on AWS using TensorFlow and deploy them as services
  • Enhance your apps by combining Apache Spark and Amazon SageMaker

Awesome book! If you want to unleash the power of the AWS platform and use it for building and running ML models, then this book is definitely a must have. The authors give solid explanations and provide clear examples along the book, aiding the reader with downloadable Python notebooks that contribute to a better understanding of every topic. Mostly recommended for anyone trying to grasp the ML concepts and learn how to apply them to build real stuff.

This book is an excellent overview of all major machine learning techniques in AWS with practical examples. It contains a background on the math behind the machine learning as well as step-by-step guidance using helpful real-world examples. The examples are wide-ranging; They include text classification, customer segmentation, image recognition, recommendations, and natural language processing of text. I found examples to be thorough and helpful. The mathematical techniques covered range from Naive Bayes classification to deep learning.For data engineers, there is quite a bit of content on automation and tuning of the machine learning process, data pipelines, and cluster configurations. While it takes many years to become a master of practical applied machine learning on cloud, this book is a great way to get started. Highly recommended for current practitioners who want to learn more or beginners who are taking the dive into machine learning and AI on AWS!

As a Data Science mentor, I always look for the best resource that can get aspiring data scientists ready to join the industry ranks. This book is excellent as it covers the content that is frequently pushed out of scope in the standard data science curriculum. Working with AWS services tends to be omitted and it leaves a gap in students preparedness. This addresses this gap and more! It also does not shy with Big Data by providing practical advice with distributed systems such as Spark, Presto, Hive and others. The content of the book is well thought and it will serve as a good reference to not only incoming data scientists and engineers, but also current professionals who would like to extend their knowledge.

What is custom duty/charge? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Customs duty are charges levied on goods when they cross international borders. It is a tax that is imposed on imported goods. These duties are charged by special authorities and bodies created by local governments and are meant to protect local industries, economies, and businesses.

Do I have to pay customs charges for the print book order? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The orders shipped to the countries that are listed under EU27 will not bear custom charges. They are paid by Packt as part of the order.

List of EU27 countries: www.gov.uk/eu-eea:

A custom duty or localized taxes may be applicable on the shipment and would be charged by the recipient country outside of the EU27 which should be paid by the customer and these duties are not included in the shipping charges been charged on the order.

How do I know my custom duty charges? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The amount of duty payable varies greatly depending on the imported goods, the country of origin and several other factors like the total invoice amount or dimensions like weight, and other such criteria applicable in your country.

For example:

  • If you live in Mexico, and the declared value of your ordered items is over $ 50, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 19% which will be $ 9.50 to the courier service.
  • Whereas if you live in Turkey, and the declared value of your ordered items is over € 22, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 18% which will be € 3.96 to the courier service.
