In this episode, Jillian and Vrajesh Prajapati, Solutions Architect at AWS, discuss the importance of establishing a resiliency baseline for applications. They cover the three pillars of resiliency: disaster recovery, high availability, and continuous improvement. Vrajesh introduces the AWS Resiliency Lifecycle Framework, which consists of five stages: set objectives, design and implement, pre-deployment and post-deployment activities, operations, and response and learning. They also discuss different disaster recovery architecture patterns, such as backups and restores, pilot light, warm standby, and multi-site active-active. The conversation concludes with a discussion on monitoring resiliency and the importance of incident analysis and correction of errors.

Amazon SageMaker Multi-Model Endpoint (MME) is fully managed capability of SageMaker Inference that allows customers to deploy thousands of models on a single endpoint and save costs by sharing instances on which the endpoints run across all the models. Until recently, MME was only supported for machine learning (ML) models which run on CPU instances. Now, customers can use MME to deploy thousands of ML models on GPU based instances as well, and potentially save costs by 90%. MME dynamically loads and unloads models from GPU memory based on incoming traffic to the endpoint. Customers save cost with MME as the GPU instances are shared by thousands of models. Customers can run ML models from multiple ML frameworks including PyTorch, TensorFlow, XGBoost, and ONNX. Customers can get started by using the NVIDIA Triton™ Inference Server and deploy models on SageMaker’s GPU instances in “multi-model“ mode. Once the MME is created, customers specify the ML model from which they want to obtain inference while invoking the endpoint. Multi Model Endpoints for GPU is available in all AWS regions where Amazon SageMaker is available.
