SageMaker Python SDK is an open source library for training and deploying machine learning models on Amazon SageMaker.
With the SDK, you can train and deploy models using popular deep learning frameworks Apache MXNet and TensorFlow. You can also train and deploy models with Amazon algorithms, which are scalable implementations of core machine learning algorithms that are optimized for SageMaker and GPU training. If you have your own algorithms built into SageMaker compatible Docker containers, you can train and host models using these as well.
For detailed documentation, including the API reference, see Read the Docs.

The SageMaker Python SDK is built to PyPI and the latest version of the SageMaker Python SDK can be installed with pip as follows
pip install sagemaker==<Latest version from pyPI from https://pypi.org/project/sagemaker/>
You can install from source by cloning this repository and running a pip install command in the root directory of the repository:
git clone https://github.com/aws/sagemaker-python-sdk.git cd sagemaker-python-sdk pip install .
SageMaker Python SDK supports Unix/Linux and Mac.
SageMaker Python SDK is tested on:
- Python 3.8
- Python 3.9
- Python 3.10
- Python 3.11
The sagemaker
library has telemetry enabled to help us better understand user needs, diagnose issues, and deliver new features. This telemetry tracks the usage of various SageMaker functions.
If you prefer to opt out of telemetry, you can easily do so by setting the TelemetryOptOut
parameter to true
in the SDK defaults configuration. For detailed instructions, please visit Configuring and using defaults with the SageMaker Python SDK.
As a managed service, Amazon SageMaker performs operations on your behalf on the AWS hardware that is managed by Amazon SageMaker. Amazon SageMaker can perform only operations that the user permits. You can read more about which permissions are necessary in the AWS Documentation.
The SageMaker Python SDK should not require any additional permissions aside from what is required for using SageMaker.
However, if you are using an IAM role with a path in it, you should grant permission for iam:GetRole
.

SageMaker Python SDK has unit tests and integration tests.
You can install the libraries needed to run the tests by running pip install --upgrade .[test]
or, for Zsh users: pip install --upgrade .\[test\]
Unit tests
We run unit tests with tox, which is a program that lets you run unit tests for multiple Python versions, and also make sure the code fits our style guidelines. We run tox with all of our supported Python versions, so to run unit tests with the same configuration we do, you need to have interpreters for those Python versions installed.
To run the unit tests with tox, run:
tox tests/unit
Integration tests
To run the integration tests, the following prerequisites must be met
- AWS account credentials are available in the environment for the boto3 client to use.
- The AWS account has an IAM role named
SageMakerRole
. It should have the AmazonSageMakerFullAccess policy attached as well as a policy with the necessary permissions to use Elastic Inference. - To run remote_function tests, dummy ecr repo should be created. It can be created by running -
aws ecr create-repository --repository-name remote-function-dummy-container
We recommend selectively running just those integration tests you'd like to run. You can filter by individual test function names with:
tox -- -k 'test_i_care_about'
You can also run all of the integration tests by running the following command, which runs them in sequence, which may take a while:
tox -- tests/integ
You can also run them in parallel:
tox -- -n auto tests/integ
to enable all git hooks in the .githooks directory, run these commands in the repository directory:
find .git/hooks -type l -exec rm {} \; find .githooks -type f -exec ln -sf ../../{} .git/hooks/ \;
To enable an individual git hook, simply move it from the .githooks/ directory to the .git/hooks/ directory.
Setup a Python environment, and install the dependencies listed in doc/requirements.txt
:
# conda conda create -n sagemaker python=3.7 conda activate sagemaker conda install sphinx=3.1.1 sphinx_rtd_theme=0.5.0 # pip pip install -r doc/requirements.txt
Clone/fork the repo, and install your local version:
pip install --upgrade .
Then cd
into the sagemaker-python-sdk/doc
directory and run:
make html
You can edit the templates for any of the pages in the docs by editing the .rst files in the doc
directory and then running make html
again.

With SageMaker SparkML Serving, you can now perform predictions against a SparkML Model in SageMaker.
In order to host a SparkML model in SageMaker, it should be serialized with MLeap
library.
For more information on MLeap, see https://github.com/combust/mleap .
Supported major version of Spark: 3.3 (MLeap version - 0.20.0)
Here is an example on how to create an instance of SparkMLModel
class and use deploy()
method to create an
endpoint which can be used to perform prediction against your trained SparkML Model.
sparkml_model = SparkMLModel(model_data='s3:https://path/to/model.tar.gz', env={'SAGEMAKER_SPARKML_SCHEMA': schema})
model_name = 'sparkml-model'
endpoint_name = 'sparkml-endpoint'
predictor = sparkml_model.deploy(initial_instance_count=1, instance_type='ml.c4.xlarge', endpoint_name=endpoint_name)
Once the model is deployed, we can invoke the endpoint with a CSV
payload like this:
payload = 'field_1,field_2,field_3,field_4,field_5'
predictor.predict(payload)
For more information about the different content-type
and Accept
formats as well as the structure of the
schema
that SageMaker SparkML Serving recognizes, please see SageMaker SparkML Serving Container.
