Objective

AWS Machine Learning services provide anybody with access to the same cloud-based machine learning resources used by Amazon's own developers for machine learning implementations. It offers developers and data scientists various resources to help build their knowledge of machine learning in the AWS Cloud. This course will teach you how to get started with AWS Machine Learning and focuses on standardized approaches to data analytics and machine learning implementation based on AWS Machine Learning tools. By the end of this course, the student will learn to build, train, deploy, automate, manage, and track enterprise-grade machine learning models from scratch in a simplified way using powerful AWS tools.
