Python AWS & AI Expert at a tech consulting company
Create innovative assistants with seamless data integration for large-scale projects
The various integration options available in Amazon SageMaker, such as Firehose for connecting to data pipelines, are simple to use. Tools like AWS Glue integrate well for data transformations. The Databricks integration aids data scientists and engineers. SageMaker is fully managed, offers high availability, flexibility with TensorFlow, PyTorch, and MXNet, and comes with pre-trained algorithms for forecasting, anomaly detection, and more.

Good performance, reporting, and data visualization
The two similar solutions that I have used are MicroStrategy and Tableau. Tableau is pretty similar and it would be difficult for me to point out the differences. With MicroStrategy, it has a great feature where you build the representation in the database and it then the tool creates SQL queries by itself. There are more differences between these tools but this is the one essential difference.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"SageMaker supports building, training, and deploying AI models from scratch, which is crucial for my ML project."
"The intuitive interface and streamlined user experience make it easy to navigate and set up various tools like Visual Studio Code or Jupyter Notebook."
"The technical support of the tool was good."
"It's user-friendly for business teams as they can understand many aspects through the AWS interface."
"The solution is easy to scale...The documentation and online community support have been sufficient for us so far."
"Allows you to create API endpoints."
"The most tool's valuable feature, in my experience, is hyperparameter tuning. It allows us to test different parameters for the same model in parallel, which helps us quickly identify the configuration that yields the highest accuracy. This parallel computing capability saves us a lot of time."
"I recommend SageMaker for ML projects if you need to build models from scratch."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of setting up visualizations."
"The most valuable feature is the performance."
"We like the way we can drill down into each report to get back data on each project. From the portfolio level, I can see what is happening on it. That is a really important feature. I can look at indirect costs, for example, which are hitting each CIO portfolio. It's good to be able to see actual resources in terms of time as well as cost."
"The idea that you don't have to generate reports each day but they are sent automatically is great."
 

Cons

"One area for improvement is the pricing, which can be quite high."
"SageMaker would be improved with the addition of reporting services."
"There are other better solutions for large data, such as Databricks."
"I would suggest that Amazon SageMaker provide free slots to allow customers to practice, such as a free slot to try out working with a Sandbox."
"I would say the IDE is quite immature, but it is still in its infancy, so I expect it to get better over time."
"The product must provide better documentation."
"The solution is complex to use."
"I had to create custom templates for labeling multi-data sets, such as text and images, which was time-consuming."
"I would like the visualization for the map of countries to be more easily configurable."
"In terms of performance, I can see there are some issues when you are working with big data. When we are taking it from the Data Lake, we have a lot of issues."
"The scripting for customization could be improved."
"Additional templates would help to get things moving more quickly in terms of getting the reports out."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"You don't pay for Sagemaker. You only pay for the compute instances in your storage."
"Databricks solution is less costly than Amazon SageMaker."
"There is no license required for the solution since you can use it on demand."
"The solution is relatively cheaper."
"The cost offers a pay-as-you-go pricing model. It depends on the instance that you do."
"The product is expensive."
"I would rate the solution's price a ten out of ten since it is very high."
"The pricing is comparable."
