Today, we are announcing the general availability of vector search for Amazon DocumentDB (with MongoDB compatibility), a new built-in capability that lets you store, index, and search millions of vectors with millisecond response times within your document database. Vector search is an emerging technique used in machine learning (ML) to find similar data points to given data by comparing their vector representations using distance or similarity metrics. Vectors are numerical representation of unstructured data created from large language models (LLM) hosted in Amazon Bedrock, Amazon SageMaker, and other open source or proprietary ML services. This approach is useful in creating generative artificial intelligence (AI) applications, such as intuitive search, product recommendation, personalization, and chatbots using Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) model…

Vector engine for Amazon OpenSearch Serverless is now available
Today we are announcing the general availability of the vector engine for Amazon OpenSearch Serverless with new features. In July 2023, we introduced the preview release of the vector engine for Amazon OpenSearch Serverless, a simple, scalable, and high-performing similarity search capability. The vector engine makes it easy for you to build modern machine learning (ML) augmented search experiences and generative artificial intelligence (generative AI) applications without needing to manage the underlying vector database infrastructure. You can now store, update, and search billions of vector embeddings with thousands of dimensions in milliseconds. The highly performant similarity search capability of vector engine enables generative AI-powered applications to deliver accurate and reliable results with consistent milliseconds-scale response times. The vector engine also…
Introducing Amazon SageMaker HyperPod, a purpose-built infrastructure for distributed training at scale
Today, we are introducing Amazon SageMaker HyperPod, which helps reducing time to train foundation models (FMs) by providing a purpose-built infrastructure for distributed training at scale. You can now use SageMaker HyperPod to train FMs for weeks or even months while SageMaker actively monitors the cluster health and provides automated node and job resiliency by replacing faulty nodes and resuming model training from a checkpoint. The clusters come preconfigured with SageMaker’s distributed training libraries that help you split your training data and model across all the nodes to process them in parallel and fully utilize the cluster’s compute and network infrastructure. You can further customize your training environment by installing additional frameworks, debugging tools, and optimization libraries. Let me show…
Amazon Titan Image Generator, Multimodal Embeddings, and Text models are now available in Amazon Bedrock
Today, we’re introducing two new Amazon Titan multimodal foundation models (FMs): Amazon Titan Image Generator (preview) and Amazon Titan Multimodal Embeddings. I’m also happy to share that Amazon Titan Text Lite and Amazon Titan Text Express are now generally available in Amazon Bedrock. You can now choose from three available Amazon Titan Text FMs, including Amazon Titan Text Embeddings. Amazon Titan models incorporate 25 years of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) innovation at Amazon and offer a range of high-performing image, multimodal, and text model options through a fully managed API. AWS pre-trained these models on large datasets, making them powerful, general-purpose models built to support a variety of use cases while also supporting the responsible use of…
