SagemakerGenerator

Generate text using large language models deployed on Amazon Sagemaker.

Key Features

  • Connects to LLMs hosted on Amazon SageMaker Inference Endpoints.
  • Supports custom model attributes, required for models like Llama 2 (for example, accept_eula: True).
  • Configurable generation parameters like max_new_tokens, temperature, and top_p.
  • Uses AWS credentials from environment variables or explicit configuration.
  • Returns generated text strings and response metadata.

Configuration

Authentication

Connect deepset AI Platform with Amazon Bedrock first.

For detailed explanation, see Use Amazon Bedrock and SageMaker Models.

  1. Drag the SagemakerGenerator component onto the canvas from the Component Library.
  2. Click the component to open the configuration panel.
  3. On the General tab:
    1. Enter the SageMaker Model Endpoint name, such as jumpstart-dft-meta-textgenerationneuron-llama-2-7b.
  4. Go to the Advanced tab to configure AWS credentials, custom attributes, and generation kwargs.

Connections

SagemakerGenerator receives a prompt string from PromptBuilder. It outputs replies (a list of generated strings) and meta (response metadata). Connect its replies output to AnswerBuilder or DeepsetAnswerBuilder.

Usage Example

This is a RAG pipeline that uses SagemakerGenerator with a Llama2 model:

You are a technical expert.
You answer questions truthfully based on provided documents.
If the answer exists in several documents, summarize them.
Ignore documents that don't contain the answer to the question.
Only answer based on the documents provided. Don't make things up.
If no information related to the question can be found in the document, say so.
Always use references in the form [NUMBER OF DOCUMENT] when using information from a document, e.g. [3] for Document [3] .
Never name the documents, only enter a number in square brackets as a reference.
The reference must only refer to the number that comes in square brackets after the document.
Otherwise, do not use brackets in your answer and reference ONLY the number of the document without mentioning the word document.

These are the documents:
{%- if documents|length > 0 %}
{%- for document in documents %}
Document [{{ loop.index }}] :
Name of Source File: {{ document.meta.file_name }}
{{ document.content }}
{% endfor -%}
{%- else %}
No relevant documents found.
Respond with "Sorry, no matching documents were found, please adjust the filters or try a different question."
{% endif %}

aws_session_tokenOptional[Secret]Secret.from_env_var(['AWS_SESSION_TOKEN'], strict=False)The Secret for AWS session token.
aws_region_nameOptional[Secret]Secret.from_env_var(['AWS_DEFAULT_REGION'], strict=False)The Secret for AWS region name. If not provided, the default region will be used.
