AWS Links & Updates – Monday, December 9, 2019
With re:Invent 2019 behind me, I have a fairly light blogging load for the rest of the month. I do, however, have a collection of late-breaking news and links that I want to share while they are still hot out of the oven!

Map for Machine Learning on AWS – My colleague Julien Simon created an awesome map that categories all of the ML and AI services. The map covers applied ML, SageMaker’s built-in environments, ML for text, ML for any data, ML for speech, ML for images & video, fraud detection, personalization & recommendation, and time series. The linked article contains a scaled-down version of the image; the original version is best!
