Study Notes

Cloud Computing Overview

  • Cloud computing delivers IT resources like compute power, storage, and applications on-demand with pay-as-you-go pricing.
  • Resources can be provisioned instantly, tailored to specific needs, simplifying access to essential IT services.

Key Services

  • Amazon Web Services (AWS) provides the necessary infrastructure for application services, allowing users to manage necessities through a web interface.
  • Commonly used cloud services include:
    • Gmail: Email service, pay only for storage used.
    • Dropbox: Cloud storage originally built on AWS.
    • Netflix: Video streaming platform relying on AWS infrastructure.

Cloud Deployment Models

  • Private Cloud: Services for a single organization with complete control, not exposed to external users.
  • Public Cloud: Resources owned and managed by a third-party provider, accessible over the internet.
  • Hybrid Cloud: Combination of on-premises servers with cloud capabilities, providing flexibility.

Generative AI Applications

  • Capable of generating images or text based on prompts, enhancing creative and automated tasks.
  • Techniques include transforming existing images into different styles or generating descriptions based on visual inputs.

Amazon Bedrock

  • A fully-managed service for building Generative AI applications on AWS with a pay-per-use pricing model.
  • Offers control over data used for training models, access to a variety of foundation models, and out-of-the-box features including security and governance.

Foundation Models in Amazon Bedrock

  • Users can access and fine-tune a copy of Foundation Models (FM), ensuring data privacy as personal data isn't used for FM training.
  • Bedrock creates vector embeddings based on user data to enhance the model's capabilities.

Model Evaluation and Business Metrics

  • Key metrics for assessing Generative AI performance include:
    • User Satisfaction: Feedback on user experience.
    • Average Revenue Per User (ARPU): Revenue analysis related to AI applications.
    • Cross-Domain Performance: Ability to operate across various tasks/directions.
    • Conversion Rate: Effectiveness in achieving desired outcomes.
    • Efficiency: Resource and computation optimization.

Improving Model Performance

  • Techniques vary in complexity and resource need:
    • Prompt Engineering: Simple adjustments to improve outcomes without training.
    • Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG): Utilizes external knowledge without modifying FM.
    • Instruction-based Fine-tuning: Requires additional resources for model-specific instruction adjustments.
    • Domain Adaptation Fine-tuning: Intensive computation to train on specific datasets.

Cost Management Strategies

  • Adjusting model size, input, and output token counts can influence costs.
  • On-demand models offer flexibility for unpredictable workloads; batch processing can yield significant discounts.

Prompt Engineering

  • Refers to shaping user prompts to generate desired AI responses effectively while protecting against prompt injections.
  • Requires explicit instructions to manage outputs, especially for complex queries.

Amazon Q Business

  • A managed AI assistant for companies leveraging internal knowledge to provide support, summaries, and automation of tasks like time-off requests or meeting scheduling.
