How-To How to actually use this

What changed: Amazon SageMaker added 13 new inference capabilities in 2026 across managed endpoints and HyperPod Inference.

How to use it:

  1. Review the new inference recommendations and capacity-aware instance pool options when planning deployments.
  2. Use tiered KV caching for workloads with large context lengths.
  3. Consider disaggregated prefill and decode to separate compute stages.
  4. Choose managed endpoints or HyperPod Inference based on your control and scale needs.

Good for: ML engineers deploying models on SageMaker.

Amazon SageMaker AI shipped 13 inference launches in year-to-date across two deployment paths: fully managed endpoints and Amazon SageMaker HyperPod Inference. This post reviews each launch, from inference recommendations and capacity-aware instance pools to tiered KV caching and disaggregated prefill and decode.
