Algorithms that are parallelizable can be deployed on
multiple compute instances for distributed training. For the Training
Image and Inference Image Registry Path column, use the
:1 version tag to ensure that you are using a stable version of the
algorithm. You can reliably host a model trained using an image with the
:1 tag on an inference image that has the :1 tag.
Using the :latest tag in the registry path provides you with the most
up-to-date version of the algorithm, but might cause problems with backward
compatibility. Avoid using the :latest tag for production
purposes.
For the Training Image and Inference Image Registry Path
column, depending on algorithm and region use one of the following values for
<ecr_path>.

Use the paths and training input mode as follows:
-
To create a training job (with a request to the CreateTrainingJob API), specify the Docker Registry path and the training input mode for the training image. You create a training job to train a model using a specific dataset.
-
To create a model (with a CreateModel request), specify the Docker Registry path for the inference image. Amazon SageMaker launches machine learning compute instances that are based on the endpoint configuration and deploys the model, which includes the artifacts (the result of model training).
