Learning Objectives
Amazon provides an extensive suite of machine-learning services designed to streamline time-consuming processes. AWS Textract, Rekognition, Comprehend, Transcribe, and Polly are some of these important services. These services help automate text extraction and recognition and integrate text-to-speech and speech-to-text services in our applications.
In this Cloud Lab, you will create an S3 bucket to provide input and then store the results of AWS Textract and Rekognition. After this, you will create an IAM role to provide necessary permissions to other AWS services. You will then create a Lambda function that will be triggered whenever a document is added to the S3 bucket. The lambda function will extract text from the document and analyze it.
In the second part of this Cloud Lab, you will convert text-to-speech using Amazon Polly and save the speech in the S3 bucket. After this, the same audio would be converted to text using Amazon Transcribe. The lab will also help you understand and execute Amazon Comprehend to identify Personally Identifiable Information (PII) from the text. Finally, you will execute Amazon Transcribe, Comprehend, and Polly integrated into a Flask application.
After completing this Cloud Lab, you will have practical knowledge of five machine learning services offered by Amazon.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which AWS service is used for machine learning?
AWS offers several services for building, training, and deploying machine learning models into applications. One of the most well-known services is Amazon SageMaker, which provides a comprehensive suite of tools for data labeling, modeling, training, and hosting machine learning models. Other notable services include AWS Deep Learning AMIs for custom environments, and AWS Comprehend for natural language processing (NLP) tasks.
Is AWS ML certification difficult?
The difficulty of the AWS Machine Learning (ML) certification depends on your experience level. The AWS Certified Machine Learning – Specialty exam can be manageable for those familiar with machine learning concepts and AWS services. However, it can be challenging for beginners due to its deep focus on machine learning algorithms and AWS-specific tools.
Which AWS service is primarily used for generative AI tasks?
Amazon Bedrock is an AWS service specifically designed for generative AI tasks. It provides access to pretrained foundational models from top AI companies and makes it easier to build and scale generative AI applications, such as text generation, image creation, and more. Bedrock simplifies model fine-tuning and integration, allowing developers to create custom AI-powered solutions without managing the underlying infrastructure.
What is AI ML AWS?
AI ML AWS refers to the suite of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) services provided by Amazon Web Services. These services are designed to help businesses and developers build AI and ML applications, ranging from data processing and model training to deploying and managing machine learning models at scale. Key services under AWS AI and ML include Amazon SageMaker, AWS Deep Learning AMIs, Amazon Rekognition for image and video analysis, Amazon Polly for text-to-speech, and AWS Lex for conversational interfaces.
What is an example of ML as a service?
An example of ML as a service is Amazon Sagemaker. It is a fully managed platform for building, training, and deploying scale-based machine learning models. SageMaker handles infrastructure, data preprocessing, and model tuning, making it easier for developers and data scientists to focus on creating ML solutions without managing the underlying complexity.

Your method is simple, straight to the point and I can practice with it everywhere, even from my phone, that's something I have never had in other learning platforms.
I highly recommend Educative. The courses are well organized and easy to understand.
I prefer Educative courses because they have a nice mix of text & images. I find that with full video courses, it can often be too easy to go into passive learning mode.
