Steps

  1. After a training job completes, call estimator.deploy() or create a Model object from the S3 model artifact and call model.deploy().
  2. Specify the instance type (e.g., ml.m5.xlarge), initial instance count, and optionally a serializer/deserializer for input and output formats.
  3. Wait for the endpoint to reach the InService state; the SDK returns a Predictor object upon success.
  4. Send inference requests using predictor.predict(data), passing your input in the format expected by the model's serving container.
  5. Monitor endpoint metrics (invocations, latency, errors) in Amazon CloudWatch under the /aws/sagemaker/Endpoints namespace.
  6. Delete the endpoint with predictor.delete_endpoint() or via the console when it is no longer needed to avoid ongoing charges.
