CreateInferenceExperiment - Amazon SageMaker
Services or capabilities described in Amazon Web Services documentation might vary by Region. To see the differences applicable to the China Regions, see Getting Started with Amazon Web Services in China (PDF).

CreateInferenceExperiment

Creates an inference experiment using the configurations specified in the request.

Use this API to setup and schedule an experiment to compare model variants on a Amazon SageMaker inference endpoint. For more information about inference experiments, see Shadow tests.

Amazon SageMaker begins your experiment at the scheduled time and routes traffic to your endpoint's model variants based on your specified configuration.

While the experiment is in progress or after it has concluded, you can view metrics that compare your model variants. For more information, see View, monitor, and edit shadow tests.

Request Syntax

{ "DataStorageConfig": { "ContentType": { "CsvContentTypes": [ "string" ], "JsonContentTypes": [ "string" ] }, "Destination": "string", "KmsKey": "string" }, "Description": "string", "EndpointName": "string", "KmsKey": "string", "ModelVariants": [ { "InfrastructureConfig": { "InfrastructureType": "string", "RealTimeInferenceConfig": { "InstanceCount": number, "InstanceType": "string" } }, "ModelName": "string", "VariantName": "string" } ], "Name": "string", "RoleArn": "string", "Schedule": { "EndTime": number, "StartTime": number }, "ShadowModeConfig": { "ShadowModelVariants": [ { "SamplingPercentage": number, "ShadowModelVariantName": "string" } ], "SourceModelVariantName": "string" }, "Tags": [ { "Key": "string", "Value": "string" } ], "Type": "string" }

Request Parameters

For information about the parameters that are common to all actions, see Common Parameters.

The request accepts the following data in JSON format.

DataStorageConfig

The Amazon S3 location and configuration for storing inference request and response data.

This is an optional parameter that you can use for data capture. For more information, see Capture data.

Type: InferenceExperimentDataStorageConfig object

Required: No

Description

A description for the inference experiment.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Maximum length of 1024.

Pattern: .*

Required: No

EndpointName

The name of the Amazon SageMaker endpoint on which you want to run the inference experiment.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Maximum length of 63.

Pattern: ^[a-zA-Z0-9](-*[a-zA-Z0-9]){0,62}

Required: Yes

KmsKey

The Amazon Key Management Service (Amazon KMS) key that Amazon SageMaker uses to encrypt data on the storage volume attached to the ML compute instance that hosts the endpoint. The KmsKey can be any of the following formats:

  • KMS key ID

    "1234abcd-12ab-34cd-56ef-1234567890ab"

  • Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of a KMS key

    "arn:aws:kms:us-west-2:111122223333:key/1234abcd-12ab-34cd-56ef-1234567890ab"

  • KMS key Alias

    "alias/ExampleAlias"

  • Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of a KMS key Alias

    "arn:aws:kms:us-west-2:111122223333:alias/ExampleAlias"

If you use a KMS key ID or an alias of your KMS key, the Amazon SageMaker execution role must include permissions to call kms:Encrypt. If you don't provide a KMS key ID, Amazon SageMaker uses the default KMS key for Amazon S3 for your role's account. Amazon SageMaker uses server-side encryption with KMS managed keys for OutputDataConfig. If you use a bucket policy with an s3:PutObject permission that only allows objects with server-side encryption, set the condition key of s3:x-amz-server-side-encryption to "aws:kms". For more information, see KMS managed Encryption Keys in the Amazon Simple Storage Service Developer Guide.

The KMS key policy must grant permission to the IAM role that you specify in your CreateEndpoint and UpdateEndpoint requests. For more information, see Using Key Policies in Amazon KMS in the Amazon Key Management Service Developer Guide.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Maximum length of 2048.

Pattern: ^[a-zA-Z0-9:/_-]*$

Required: No

ModelVariants

An array of ModelVariantConfig objects. There is one for each variant in the inference experiment. Each ModelVariantConfig object in the array describes the infrastructure configuration for the corresponding variant.

Type: Array of ModelVariantConfig objects

Array Members: Minimum number of 1 item. Maximum number of 2 items.

Required: Yes

Name

The name for the inference experiment.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 120.

Pattern: ^[a-zA-Z0-9](-*[a-zA-Z0-9]){0,119}

Required: Yes

RoleArn

The ARN of the IAM role that Amazon SageMaker can assume to access model artifacts and container images, and manage Amazon SageMaker Inference endpoints for model deployment.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 20. Maximum length of 2048.

Pattern: ^arn:aws[a-z\-]*:iam::\d{12}:role/?[a-zA-Z_0-9+=,.@\-_/]+$

Required: Yes

Schedule

The duration for which you want the inference experiment to run. If you don't specify this field, the experiment automatically starts immediately upon creation and concludes after 7 days.

Type: InferenceExperimentSchedule object

Required: No

ShadowModeConfig

The configuration of ShadowMode inference experiment type. Use this field to specify a production variant which takes all the inference requests, and a shadow variant to which Amazon SageMaker replicates a percentage of the inference requests. For the shadow variant also specify the percentage of requests that Amazon SageMaker replicates.

Type: ShadowModeConfig object

Required: Yes

Tags

Array of key-value pairs. You can use tags to categorize your Amazon resources in different ways, for example, by purpose, owner, or environment. For more information, see Tagging your Amazon Resources.

Type: Array of Tag objects

Array Members: Minimum number of 0 items. Maximum number of 50 items.

Required: No

Type

The type of the inference experiment that you want to run. The following types of experiments are possible:

  • ShadowMode: You can use this type to validate a shadow variant. For more information, see Shadow tests.

Type: String

Valid Values: ShadowMode

Required: Yes

Response Syntax

{ "InferenceExperimentArn": "string" }

Response Elements

If the action is successful, the service sends back an HTTP 200 response.

The following data is returned in JSON format by the service.
