Deploying A Custom Pytorch Model to SageMaker using Terraform, Docker, FastAPI and Pytorch
In this article, we will walk you through the process of deploying a custom Pytorch model to Amazon SageMaker using Terraform, Docker, FastAPI, and Pytorch.
Step 1: Prepare Your Pytorch Model
First, you need to train and save your custom Pytorch model. Make sure to save the model weights and any necessary files.
Step 2: Create a FastAPI Service
Next, you will create a FastAPI service that will serve as the interface between your Pytorch model and SageMaker. FastAPI is a modern, fast (high-performance), web framework for building APIs with Python.
Step 3: Build a Docker Image
Create a Dockerfile that installs all the necessary dependencies for your FastAPI service and Pytorch model. This Docker image will be used to run your service in SageMaker.
Step 4: Use Terraform to Deploy to SageMaker
Use Terraform to create the necessary resources in SageMaker to deploy your custom Pytorch model. This may include creating a model, endpoint configuration, and endpoint.
Step 5: Test Your Deployment
Once your model is deployed to SageMaker, you can test it using the SageMaker API or by sending requests to the endpoint you created.
Conclusion
Deploying a custom Pytorch model to SageMaker using Terraform, Docker, FastAPI, and Pytorch can be a complex process, but with the right tools and steps, you can successfully deploy and test your model in a production environment.
Hi, Thank you so much for making this tutorial. I have a question, I see that you have defined a "/invocations" endpoint, is it possible to have multiple post/get endpoints and use it? And I have a pretrained CLIP model from transformers library Im using. Essentially my endpoint would take in a video, read frame by frame and insert these embeddings into a vector database. Currently I have it wrapped in a fastapi application deployed to a CPU instance on EC2. My application would benefit a ton from having a GPU and I was wondering if there are any other ways to deploy this on a GPU instance or any recommendations at all :)) I would really appreciate your input!
thank you, please continue producing videos
How to make the final request via postman?
Great content! However, it would be even more helpful if you could provide detailed explanations of the steps involved in configuring AWS IAM for Terraform..
