Give SageMaker Hosted Endpoints Access to Resources in Your Amazon VPC
Configure a Model for Amazon VPC Access
To specify subnets and security groups in your private VPC, use the VpcConfig
request parameter of the CreateModel
API, or provide this information when you create a model in the
SageMaker console. SageMaker uses this information to create network interfaces and attach them to your model
containers. The network interfaces provide your model containers with a network connection within your
VPC that is not connected to the internet. They also enable your model to connect to resources in your
private VPC.
Note
You must create at least two subnets in different availability zones in your private VPC, even if you have only one hosting instance.
The following is an example of the VpcConfig
parameter that you
include in your call to CreateModel
:
VpcConfig: { "Subnets": [ "subnet-0123456789abcdef0", "subnet-0123456789abcdef1", "subnet-0123456789abcdef2" ], "SecurityGroupIds": [ "sg-0123456789abcdef0" ] }
Configure Your Private VPC for SageMaker Hosting
When configuring the private VPC for your SageMaker models, use the following guidelines. For information about setting up a VPC, see Working with VPCs and Subnets in the Amazon VPC User Guide.
Topics
Ensure That Subnets Have Enough IP Addresses
Training instances that don't use an Elastic Fabric Adapter (EFA) should have at least 2 private IP addresses. Training instances that use an EFA should have at least 5 private IP addresses. For more information, see Multiple IP addresses in the Amazon EC2 User Guide.
Create an Amazon S3 VPC Endpoint
If you configure your VPC so that model containers don't have access to the internet, they can't connect to the Amazon S3 buckets that contain your data unless you create a VPC endpoint that allows access. By creating a VPC endpoint, you allow your model containers to access the buckets where you store your data and model artifacts . We recommend that you also create a custom policy that allows only requests from your private VPC to access to your S3 buckets. For more information, see Endpoints for Amazon S3.
To create an Amazon S3 VPC endpoint:
-
Open the Amazon VPC console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/vpc/
. -
In the navigation pane, choose Endpoints, then choose Create Endpoint
-
For Service Name, choose com.amazonaws.
region
.s3, whereregion
is the name of the AWS Region where your VPC resides. -
For VPC, choose the VPC that you want to use for this endpoint.
-
For Configure route tables, choose the route tables for the endpoint to use. The VPC service automatically adds a route to each route table that you choose that points Amazon S3 traffic to the new endpoint.
-
For Policy, choose Full Access to allow full access to the Amazon S3 service by any user or service within the VPC. To restrict access further, choose Custom. For more information, see Use a Custom Endpoint Policy to Restrict Access to Amazon S3.
Use a Custom Endpoint Policy to Restrict Access to Amazon S3
The default endpoint policy allows full access to Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) for any user or service in your VPC. To further restrict access to Amazon S3, create a custom endpoint policy. For more information, see Using Endpoint Policies for Amazon S3.
You can also use a bucket policy to restrict access to your S3 buckets to only traffic that comes from your Amazon VPC. For information, see Using Amazon S3 Bucket Policies.
Restrict Package Installation on the Model Container with a Custom Endpoint Policy
The default endpoint policy allows users to install packages from the Amazon Linux and Amazon Linux 2 repositories on the model container. If you don't want users to install packages from those repositories, create a custom endpoint policy that explicitly denies access to the Amazon Linux and Amazon Linux 2 repositories. The following is an example of a policy that denies access to these repositories:
{ "Statement": [ { "Sid": "AmazonLinuxAMIRepositoryAccess", "Principal": "*", "Action": [ "s3:GetObject" ], "Effect": "Deny", "Resource": [ "arn:aws:s3:::packages.*.amazonaws.com/*", "arn:aws:s3:::repo.*.amazonaws.com/*" ] } ] } { "Statement": [ { "Sid": "AmazonLinux2AMIRepositoryAccess", "Principal": "*", "Action": [ "s3:GetObject" ], "Effect": "Deny", "Resource": [ "arn:aws:s3:::amazonlinux.*.amazonaws.com/*" ] } ] }
Add Permissions for Endpoint Access for Containers Running in a VPC to Custom IAM Policies
The SageMakerFullAccess
managed policy includes the permissions that you
need to use models configured for Amazon VPC access with an endpoint. These permissions allow SageMaker to
create an elastic network interface and attach it to model containers running in a VPC. If you use
your own IAM policy, you must add the following permissions to that policy to use models
configured for VPC access.
{ "Version": "2012-10-17", "Statement": [ { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": [ "ec2:DescribeVpcEndpoints", "ec2:DescribeDhcpOptions", "ec2:DescribeVpcs", "ec2:DescribeSubnets", "ec2:DescribeSecurityGroups", "ec2:DescribeNetworkInterfaces", "ec2:DeleteNetworkInterfacePermission", "ec2:DeleteNetworkInterface", "ec2:CreateNetworkInterfacePermission", "ec2:CreateNetworkInterface" ], "Resource": "*" } ] }
For more information about the SageMakerFullAccess
managed
policy, see AWS managed policy: AmazonSageMakerFullAccess.
Configure Route Tables
Use default DNS settings for your endpoint route table, so that standard Amazon S3
URLs (for example, http://s3-aws-region.amazonaws.com/amzn-s3-demo-bucket
)
resolve. If you don't use default DNS settings, ensure that the URLs that you
use to specify the locations of the data in your models resolve by configuring
the endpoint route tables. For information about VPC endpoint route tables, see
Routing for Gateway Endpoints in the Amazon VPC User
Guide.
Connect to Resources Outside Your VPC
If you configure your VPC so that it doesn't have internet access, models that use that VPC do not have access to resources outside your VPC. If your model needs access to resources outside your VPC, provide access with one of the following options:
-
If your model needs access to an AWS service that supports interface VPC endpoints, create an endpoint to connect to that service. For a list of services that support interface endpoints, see VPC Endpoints in the Amazon VPC User Guide. For information about creating an interface VPC endpoint, see Interface VPC Endpoints (AWS PrivateLink) in the Amazon VPC User Guide.
-
If your model needs access to an AWS service that doesn't support interface VPC endpoints or to a resource outside of AWS, create a NAT gateway and configure your security groups to allow outbound connections. For information about setting up a NAT gateway for your VPC, see Scenario 2: VPC with Public and Private Subnets (NAT) in the Amazon Virtual Private Cloud User Guide.
