Lyft Level 5 migrates heavy ML training from self-managed Kubernetes to Amazon SageMaker and cuts turnaround from days to minutes/hours by using distributed training (PyTorch DistributedDataParallel, up to dozens of nodes) and a small CLI that builds/pushes containers to ECR. Data labeling uses SageMaker Ground Truth for 2D images and 3D point clouds with auto-labeling that claims up to 70% cost reduction. Using managed spot instances and SageMaker’s one‑click APIs, Lyft trains three times more models while reducing total cost.
