SageMaker Integration

W&B integrates with Amazon SageMaker, automatically reading hyperparameters, grouping distributed runs, and resuming runs from checkpoints.

Authentication

W&B looks for a file named secrets.env relative to the training script and loads them into the environment when wandb.init() is called. You can generate a secrets.env file by calling wandb.sagemaker_auth(path="source_dir") in the script you use to launch your experiments. Be sure to add this file to your .gitignore!

Existing Estimators

If you're using one of SageMakers preconfigured estimators you need to add a requirements.txt to your source directory that includes wandb

If you're using an estimator that's running Python 2, you'll need to install psutil directly from a wheel before installing wandb:
