CMP216_Use Amazon EC2 Spot Instances to Deploy a Deep Learning Framework on A...Amazon Web Services
Deep learning, an implementation of machine learning, uses neural networks to solve complex problems like computer vision, natural language processing, and recommendations. Deep learning libraries and frameworks enable developers to enhance the capabilities of their applications and projects. In this workshop, learn how to build and deploy a powerful deep learning framework, Apache MXNet, on containers. The portability and resource management benefit of containers enables developers to focus less on infrastructure and more on building. The lab first demonstrates the automation capabilities of AWS CloudFormation to stand up core infrastructure. We also leverage Spot Fleet for the cost benefit of using Spot Instances, especially important for developer environments. Next we create an MXNet container in Docker and deploy it with Amazon ECS. Finally, we explore image classification with MXNet to validate that everything is working as expected.
"Containers allow you to easily package an application's code, configurations, and dependencies into easy to use building blocks that deliver environmental consistency, operational efficiency, developer productivity, and version control. But how can developers leverage containers to drive innovation for their applications, their team, and organization?
In this session, Asif Khan Technical Business Manager for AWS will discuss how containers are becoming a new cloud native compute primitive, and how your organization can use containers as a building block to accelerate innovation.
WeWork's Christopher Tava, Joshua Davis, and OpsLine's Radek Wierzbicki will show how they adopted containers as discipline in code development, and how they refactored their production architecture into containers running on Amazon ECS in under 8 months."
Developing deep learning applications just got even simpler and faster. In this session, you will learn how to program deep learning models using Gluon, the new intuitive, dynamic programming interface available for the Apache MXNet open-source framework. We’ll also explore neural network architectures such as multi-layer perceptrons, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and LSTMs.
