create-inference-component
Description
Creates an inference component, which is a SageMaker AI hosting object that you can use to deploy a model to an endpoint. In the inference component settings, you specify the model, the endpoint, and how the model utilizes the resources that the endpoint hosts. You can optimize resource utilization by tailoring how the required CPU cores, accelerators, and memory are allocated. You can deploy multiple inference components to an endpoint, where each inference component contains one model and the resource utilization needs for that individual model. After you deploy an inference component, you can directly invoke the associated model when you use the InvokeEndpoint API action.

Options
--inference-component-name (string)
--endpoint-name (string)
--variant-name (string)
--specification (structure)
Details about the resources to deploy with this inference component, including the model, container, and compute resources.
ModelName -> (string)
Container -> (structure)
Defines a container that provides the runtime environment for a model that you deploy with an inference component.
Image -> (string)
ArtifactUrl -> (string)
Environment -> (map)
The environment variables to set in the Docker container. Each key and value in the Environment string-to-string map can have length of up to 1024. We support up to 16 entries in the map.
key -> (string)
value -> (string)
StartupParameters -> (structure)
Settings that take effect while the model container starts up.
ModelDataDownloadTimeoutInSeconds -> (integer)
ContainerStartupHealthCheckTimeoutInSeconds -> (integer)
ComputeResourceRequirements -> (structure)
The compute resources allocated to run the model, plus any adapter models, that you assign to the inference component.
Omit this parameter if your request is meant to create an adapter inference component. An adapter inference component is loaded by a base inference component, and it uses the compute resources of the base inference component.
NumberOfCpuCoresRequired -> (float)
NumberOfAcceleratorDevicesRequired -> (float)
MinMemoryRequiredInMb -> (integer)
MaxMemoryRequiredInMb -> (integer)
BaseInferenceComponentName -> (string)
The name of an existing inference component that is to contain the inference component that you’re creating with your request.
Specify this parameter only if your request is meant to create an adapter inference component. An adapter inference component contains the path to an adapter model. The purpose of the adapter model is to tailor the inference output of a base foundation model, which is hosted by the base inference component. The adapter inference component uses the compute resources that you assigned to the base inference component.
When you create an adapter inference component, use the Container parameter to specify the location of the adapter artifacts. In the parameter value, use the ArtifactUrl parameter of the InferenceComponentContainerSpecification data type.
Before you can create an adapter inference component, you must have an existing inference component that contains the foundation model that you want to adapt.

--tags (list)
A list of key-value pairs associated with the model. For more information, see Tagging Amazon Web Services resources in the Amazon Web Services General Reference .
(structure)
A tag object that consists of a key and an optional value, used to manage metadata for SageMaker Amazon Web Services resources.
You can add tags to notebook instances, training jobs, hyperparameter tuning jobs, batch transform jobs, models, labeling jobs, work teams, endpoint configurations, and endpoints. For more information on adding tags to SageMaker resources, see AddTags .

--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml (string) Reads arguments from the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, those values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally. This may not be specified along with --cli-input-yaml.
--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. Similarly, if provided yaml-input it will print a sample input YAML that can be used with --cli-input-yaml. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command. The generated JSON skeleton is not stable between versions of the AWS CLI and there are no backwards compatibility guarantees in the JSON skeleton generated.
Global Options
--debug (boolean)
Turn on debug logging.
--endpoint-url (string)
Override command’s default URL with the given URL.
--no-verify-ssl (boolean)
By default, the AWS CLI uses SSL when communicating with AWS services. For each SSL connection, the AWS CLI will verify SSL certificates. This option overrides the default behavior of verifying SSL certificates.
--no-paginate (boolean)
Disable automatic pagination. If automatic pagination is disabled, the AWS CLI will only make one call, for the first page of results.
--output (string)
The formatting style for command output.
- json
- text
- table
- yaml
- yaml-stream
--query (string)
A JMESPath query to use in filtering the response data.
--profile (string)
Use a specific profile from your credential file.
--region (string)
The region to use. Overrides config/env settings.
--version (string)
Display the version of this tool.
--color (string)
Turn on/off color output.
- on
- off
- auto
--no-sign-request (boolean)
Do not sign requests. Credentials will not be loaded if this argument is provided.
--ca-bundle (string)
The CA certificate bundle to use when verifying SSL certificates. Overrides config/env settings.
--cli-read-timeout (int)
The maximum socket read time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket read will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.
--cli-connect-timeout (int)
The maximum socket connect time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket connect will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.
--cli-binary-format (string)
The formatting style to be used for binary blobs. The default format is base64. The base64 format expects binary blobs to be provided as a base64 encoded string. The raw-in-base64-out format preserves compatibility with AWS CLI V1 behavior and binary values must be passed literally. When providing contents from a file that map to a binary blob fileb:// will always be treated as binary and use the file contents directly regardless of the cli-binary-format setting. When using file:// the file contents will need to properly formatted for the configured cli-binary-format.
- base64
- raw-in-base64-out
--no-cli-pager (boolean)
Disable cli pager for output.
--cli-auto-prompt (boolean)
Automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.
--no-cli-auto-prompt (boolean)
Disable automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.
