Our AWS re:Invent 2021 Predictions for ML Services

  1. Release of new generation ec2 instance for faster Machine Learning Training and Inference, which will offer a better Price-Performance Ratio.
  2. Amazon Textract will soon penetrate the market by providing extraction solutions that are domain-specific, covering specific types of document extraction solutions. We may see examples of specific types of documents that will be extracted.
  3. As we are in the midst of guiding ourselves through the pandemic, we will be aware that 2020 was a big year for medical image processing, particularly for chest x-rays. In this regard, we are expecting Amazon to announce a service similar to “Lookout For Vision” which will be used for anomaly detection, specifically focused on radiology-based images.
  4. An enhancement to Amazon Health Lake is expected to augment patient tracking and management.
  5. With the recent acquisition of Wickr, improvements in Lex are likely to be out later this year or early next year.
  6. A range of Automation options within AWS Service is likely to be announced.
  7. Furthermore, we look forward to big announcements of several incremental improvements to Amazon Rekognition service offering and additional flexibility in Machine Learning Training Models for images and videos.
