AWS-DL
New Deep Learning on AWS
Description
In this course, we will learn about AWS Deep Learning (DL) solutions, with a focus on scenarios where DL can be of real use, and the principles of how Deep Learning works. We will learn how to run DL models in the cloud using Amazon SageMaker and the MXNet framework. We will also learn how to deploy DL models using services like AWS Lambda while designing intelligent systems on AWS.
The course consists of lectures, group exercises and lab exercises.
What will you learn in the course?
- The differences between Machine Learning and Deep Learning.
- How to define goals in the DL ecosystem.
- How to use the Amazon SageMaker and MXNet frameworks for DL work
- How to integrate AWS solutions with DL deployments
