Get started with Code Editor in Amazon SageMaker Studio

Code Editor, based on Code-OSS, Visual Studio Code - Open Source, helps you write, test, debug, and run your analytics and machine learning code. Code Editor extends and is fully integrated with Amazon SageMaker Studio. It also supports integrated development environment (IDE) extensions available in the Open VSX Registry.

Code Editor has the Amazon Toolkit for VS Code extension pre-installed, which enables connections to Amazon Web Services such as Amazon CodeWhisperer, a general purpose, machine learning-powered code generator that provides code recommendations in real time. For more information about extensions, see Code Editor Connections and Extensions.

To launch Code Editor, create a Code Editor private space. The Code Editor space uses a single Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instance for your compute and a single Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) volume for your storage. Everything in your space such as your code, Git profile, and environment variables are stored on the same Amazon EBS volume. The volume has 3000 IOPS and a throughput of 125 MBps. Your administrator has configured the default Amazon EBS storage settings for your space.

The default storage size is 5 GB, but your administrator can increase the amount of space you get. For more information, see Change the default storage size.

You can scale your compute up or down by changing the Amazon EC2 instance type that runs your Code Editor application. Before you change the associated instance type, you must first stop your Code Editor space. For more information, see Code Editor application instances and images.

Your administrator might provide you with a lifecycle configuration to customize your environment. You can specify the lifecycle configuration when you create the space. For more information, see Code Editor lifecycle configurations.

You can also bring your own file storage system if you have an Amazon EFS volume.
