Struggling to Automate AWS SageMaker Model Deployment in CI/CD using GitHub Actions
I'm learning this framework and I'm upgrading from an older version and Hey everyone, I'm running into an issue that's driving me crazy..... Currently developing a CI/CD pipeline to automate the deployment of machine learning models using AWS SageMaker. I'm leveraging GitHub Actions to trigger deployments upon merging to the main branch. However, I've run into a snag when trying to configure the pipeline to handle model versioning and associated resources. I started by creating a basic GitHub Action workflow like this: ```yaml name: Deploy to SageMaker on: push: branches: - main jobs: deploy: runs-on: ubuntu-latest steps: - name: Checkout code uses: actions/checkout@v2 - name: Set up AWS CLI uses: aws-actions/configure-aws-credentials@v1 with: aws-access-key-id: ${{ secrets.AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID }} aws-secret-access-key: ${{ secrets.AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY }} aws-region: us-west-2 - name: Deploy Model run: | aws sagemaker create-model --model-name my-model-$(date +%Y%m%d%H%M%S) \ --primary-container "Image=<image_uri>,ModelDataUrl=<s3_model_path>" ``` This initial setup works, but I need to incorporate a way to automatically update the model endpoint after a new version is deployed. I’ve tried using the `update-endpoint` command but found that I need to specify the endpoint configuration, which isn't straightforward. Here’s the command I've been testing: ```bash aws sagemaker update-endpoint --endpoint-name my-endpoint --endpoint-config-name my-endpoint-config ``` The challenge arises because my endpoint configurations might change frequently as I iterate on model improvements. Is there a recommended approach to dynamically manage endpoint configurations alongside model versioning in SageMaker? Any insights into best practices or examples would be greatly appreciated. Additionally, if there are any pitfalls I should avoid when automating this process, that would be helpful too. What am I doing wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated! I'm working in a Ubuntu 22.04 environment. Thanks for your help in advance! Hoping someone can shed some light on this.
