Full transcript
- 0:01Hey, welcome back. Day 19 is here. We
- 0:04are in the home stretch now. Only two
- 0:05more after this. Today we are talking
- 0:08about something that honestly makes AWS
- 0:10feel a little futuristic. AI and machine
- 0:12learning. Plus how AWS handles massive
- 0:15amounts of data. Think about it. Every
- 0:17time Netflix recommends a show or bank
- 0:20flags a weird transaction or let's say a
- 0:22chatbot answers your question instantly,
- 0:24there's a service behind that doing the
- 0:26heavy lifting. Today you will learn the
- 0:28AWS versions of exactly that. Now here's
- 0:32the good news for your exam. You are not
- 0:34going to be asked to build any of this.
- 0:36Nobody's going to ask you to train a
- 0:38neural network. The exam just wants to
- 0:40know can you match the right AWS service
- 0:42to the right business problem or not.
- 0:44That's it. So today is really a matching
- 0:46game and once you see a pattern, it
- 0:48clicks fast. So let's get into it. So
- 0:51quick road map for today. We are going
- 0:53to cover this in a very natural order
- 0:55like a story. First we will zoom out and
- 0:57understand the big picture of AWS AI
- 0:59services. What's ready versus what you
- 1:02build yourself. Then we will go service
- 1:04by service through the readymade AI
- 1:06tools. First the ones that deal with
- 1:08images, documents and language. And then
- 1:11the ones that deals with speech,
- 1:13translation, chats bots and search.
- 1:16After that we shift gears into
- 1:17analytics. How AWS moves data from raw
- 1:19and messy all the way to the polish
- 1:21dashboard someone can actually use to
- 1:23make decisions. and then we will wrap up
- 1:25with the quick reference table and have
- 1:27a fun challenge as well. So, sounds
- 1:30good. Let's start with the big picture.
- 1:33Okay, imagine you need a translator. You
- 1:36have two options in real life. You
- 1:38either hire someone who already speaks
- 1:4015 languages fluently and then just ask
- 1:42them to translate your document right
- 1:43now or you train someone from scratch to
- 1:46become translator which takes way longer
- 1:48but gives you something incredibly
- 1:50specific to your needs. That's basically
- 1:53the difference between AWS two
- 1:54categories of AI services. So we have
- 1:57readym made AI services. They are like
- 2:00the fluent translator who is already
- 2:02sitting there. AWS has already trained
- 2:04the model on huge amounts of data. You
- 2:06just call an API meaning you send a
- 2:08request and get a answer back. No
- 2:11machine learning knowledge is required.
- 2:12It is fast, easy, but you can't
- 2:14customize how it thinks. So we have AWS
- 2:18SageMaker AI. It is the train someone
- 2:20from scratch option. It's a full
- 2:22platform for building, training, and
- 2:24deploying your own custom models for
- 2:26when your problem is so specific that no
- 2:28readymade service fits. Maybe you want
- 2:30to predict which of your customers will
- 2:32cancel their subscription based on your
- 2:34company's unique data. That's a
- 2:35SageMaker AI job. Here's the rule of
- 2:37thumb. I really want you to lock this in
- 2:40because exam loves to test this exact
- 2:42idea. If the task is common, translate
- 2:44text, transcribe a voice recording,
- 2:47detect object in a photo, that's a
- 2:49readymate service. If it's a custom
- 2:52prediction model trained on company's
- 2:53own proprietary data that's sagemaker
- 2:55AI. Now two more names you will bump
- 2:58into Amazon Bedrock and we have Amazon
- 3:01Q. So Amazon Bedrock is AWS platform for
- 3:04building generative AI applications.
- 3:07Think of chatbots or content generators
- 3:09using powerful foundational model from
- 3:11Amazon other providers without you
- 3:12having to manage any servers behind it.
- 3:15And then we have Amazon Q. It is an AWS
- 3:18own AI assistant. It can answer
- 3:19questions about AWS itself. It helps you
- 3:22write code if you're a developer or
- 3:23summarize business data depending on
- 3:25which version you are using. You don't
- 3:26need to memorize how these work
- 3:28internally. Just recognize the names and
- 3:30roughly what bucket they fall into. So
- 3:32let's meet the readymade services one at
- 3:34a time because honestly once you know
- 3:36what each one's superpower is, this
- 3:37becomes really easy. So the first one we
- 3:40have Amazon recognition. Think of the
- 3:42word recognition. It looks at images and
- 3:45videos. It can detect faces, compare two
- 3:47faces to see if they match, recognize
- 3:49objects and scenes, and even flag
- 3:51inappropriate content. If the question
- 3:53is about a photo or video, recognition
- 3:55is your answer. Remember that. The next
- 3:58we have is Amazon Textract. This one
- 4:01pulls text and data out of scanned
- 4:03documents. Picture a messy scanned
- 4:05invoice or a form. Text track doesn't
- 4:08just read the words. It understand
- 4:10tables and fields. So, it knows this
- 4:12number is the total and this box is the
- 4:14date. That is smarter than basic OCR.
- 4:17Now, here's a trap the exam loves. If
- 4:19the question says, "Extract the total
- 4:21from a scanned invoice," your brain
- 4:23might jump into recognition because it
- 4:25sounds like image stuff. But no, that's
- 4:28extracted because it's a document with
- 4:30structured information. Recognition is
- 4:33for understanding what's in a photo or
- 4:35video, not for reading structured text
- 4:37out of a form. So, keep those separate
- 4:39in your head. Then, we have Amazon
- 4:42comprehend. This is about understanding
- 4:44language and meaning in text. Sentiment
- 4:46analysis. Is this review positive or
- 4:49negative? Pulling out key phrases,
- 4:51identifying names of people or companies
- 4:53and even detecting what language
- 4:55something is written in. An Amazon
- 4:57comprehend medical is the specialized
- 4:59cousin. It reads clinical notes and
- 5:01pulls out things like medical
- 5:03conditions, medication, and dosages.
- 5:06Healthcare specific version of
- 5:08comprehend. Now, let's cover the ones
- 5:10dealing with voice, language,
- 5:12conversation, and search. Amazon Poly
- 5:15turns text into speech. Natural lifelike
- 5:17audio. Think of an app that reads
- 5:19article out loud to you. We have Amazon
- 5:22Transcribe. It does the exact opposite.
- 5:24Speech to text. You give it an audio
- 5:27recording, it gives you a written
- 5:28transcript, and it can even tell
- 5:30different speakers apart in the same
- 5:32recording. The next we have Amazon
- 5:35Translate. Pretty self-explanatory.
- 5:38Realtime translation between languages
- 5:40keeping the meaning and formatting
- 5:42intact.
- 5:44Amazon lacks. It builds chat bots and
- 5:46voice assistants. Fun fact, this is
- 5:49literally the same technology behind
- 5:50Alexa. It understand what someone means,
- 5:53not just the exact word they typed,
- 5:54which is called understanding intent.
- 5:57And the last we have is Amazon Kendra.
- 6:00It is enterprise search but smart
- 6:02search. Employees can type a natural
- 6:04question like what's our vacation policy
- 6:05and kinder searches across internal
- 6:07documents to find the answer instead of
- 6:09you scrolling through folders. Here's a
- 6:11classic trap. If say build a customer
- 6:14service chatbot that's less because it's
- 6:18conversation.
- 6:20Let employees search through company
- 6:22documents in plain English. That's
- 6:24kendra because it's search not
- 6:26conversation. Same vibe different job.
- 6:29So don't mix them up.
- 6:31All right, let's shift from AI to
- 6:33analytics because these often get
- 6:35grouped together on the exam, but they
- 6:37are really about a different problem.
- 6:40How do you take huge piles of raw data
- 6:42and actually make sense of them? Think
- 6:45of it like a factory line. Data comes in
- 6:47raw. It needs to be clean and organized
- 6:50and eventually someone needs to be able
- 6:52to ask questions of it. Here, Amazon
- 6:54Kinesis is step one, ingesting data in
- 6:57real time as it happens. Think of
- 7:00website clicks streaming in every second
- 7:02or sensors on factory equipment
- 7:03constantly sending readings. Kinesis
- 7:06catches that live flowing data. And we
- 7:09have AWS glue. It is a cleanup crew. It
- 7:12is serverless ETL service which stands
- 7:15for extract transformation load.
- 7:19It takes up messy raw data and cleans
- 7:21and prepares it. And glue also has a
- 7:24neat side benefit. It can catalog your
- 7:26data basically creating a map of what
- 7:28data exist and where. So the services
- 7:31like Athena can find and query it
- 7:33easily. Talking about Athena, it is
- 7:36where it gets really cool. Ethna lets
- 7:38you run SQL queries meaning you can
- 7:40literally ask questions like show me all
- 7:42sales over $100 directly on the data
- 7:45sitting in Amazon S3. No database to set
- 7:47up, no servers to manage. You just pay
- 7:49the amount of data your query actually
- 7:52scans. So remember this if the exam
- 7:54specifically mentions no servers to
- 7:56manage query data sitting in S3 that is
- 8:00almost always pointing you straight at
- 8:01ethna. Let's continue the pipeline into
- 8:04the bigger heavier tools. Amazon red
- 8:06shift it is a full data warehouse built
- 8:09for large scale analysis of structured
- 8:12and historical data especially when you
- 8:14need complex joins across huge tables.
- 8:17Think of a company analyzing 5 years of
- 8:19sales data.
- 8:21And we have Amazon EMR. Amazon EMR runs
- 8:25big data processing frameworks like
- 8:27Apache, Spark and Hadoop on manage
- 8:29clusters. This is for massive
- 8:31distributed processing jobs. The kind of
- 8:33scale you are crunching terabytes or
- 8:35pabytes of raw data at once. The another
- 8:38service we have Amazon open search
- 8:40service. It is all about search and log
- 8:43analytics at scale. Full text search,
- 8:45monitoring application logs, building
- 8:47operational dashboards to catch issues
- 8:49fast. This is open search service.
- 8:53And we have Amazon Quicksite. And this
- 8:56is the final stop. A business
- 8:58intelligence tool for building
- 9:00interactive dashboards. This is what an
- 9:02executive looks at. Clean charts and
- 9:04visuals, not raw data. And here's the
- 9:07trap that trips up almost everyone at
- 9:08first. Athena and Red Ship both feel
- 9:11like SQL databases. But Athena is
- 9:14serverless. You pay per query straight
- 9:16on data sitting in the S3. and we have
- 9:19Red Shift. And Red Shift is a
- 9:21provisioned cluster. You're paying for a
- 9:23warehouse that's always running. So
- 9:25don't swap these two on the exam. Make
- 9:28sure to remember both of these services.
- 9:30Let's pull this all together into one
- 9:32simple reference because honestly this
- 9:34table alone could save you points on the
- 9:35exam day. Query data in S3 with no
- 9:39database to manage that is Athena. Need
- 9:42a dashboard for executives? We have
- 9:45Quicksite.
- 9:47And if you need of data warehouse for
- 9:49structured historical data with complex
- 9:51joins, we use Amazon Red Shift.
- 9:55And if you need distributed big data
- 9:57processing, we have Amazon EMR.
- 10:01If need realtime streaming injection, we
- 10:05use Kinesis.
- 10:07For full text search or log analytics,
- 10:10there is open search. And if you need to
- 10:13clean or catalog data, we have glue.
- 10:16Take a note, take a screenshot of this
- 10:18one seriously because this kind of table
- 10:20is you want to open the night before
- 10:22your exam. Let's recap today in one bit.
- 10:25Readymate AI means you just call an API.
- 10:28AWS already trained it. SageMaker AI is
- 10:31for building your own custom model and
- 10:33Bedrock is for building generative AI
- 10:36apps using foundational models and
- 10:38Amazon Q's own AWS AI assistant.
- 10:42And for vision and documents, Amazon
- 10:44recognition handles videos and images.
- 10:47Textract handles documents. For
- 10:49language, comprehend understand text and
- 10:52comprehend medical understands clinical
- 10:54text. For speech and conversation, Poly
- 10:56speaks transcribe listens and writes it
- 10:58down. Translate switches languages. Lex
- 11:01builds chatbot and Kendra powers smart
- 11:03search. And for the data pipeline,
- 11:06Kynesis brings data in. Glue cleans and
- 11:08catalogs it. and Athena or Red Shift
- 11:10lets you cur it and EMR handles massive
- 11:13processing jobs. We have open search
- 11:15that handles search and logs and
- 11:16quicksite turns it all into a dashboard
- 11:19someone can actually use. So tonight I
- 11:21want you to flashcard this entire
- 11:23service to task list and I also want you
- 11:25to complete the assessment provided in
- 11:27the LMS. This domain tends to show up as
- 11:30three to five direct recall questions.
- 11:32So this is genuinely free points if you
- 11:34know your matching game. Tomorrow day 20
- 11:37we move into migration strategies. the
- 11:38well architected framework and the cloud
- 11:41adoption framework and disaster
- 11:42recovery. Big picture strategic AWS
- 11:45thinking. See you there.
