Getting Started with the Fiddler Partner AI App on Amazon SageMaker
Introduction
The Fiddler Partner AI App for Amazon SageMaker brings enterprise-grade AI observability directly into your SageMaker environment. As a fully integrated Partner AI App, Fiddler enables data scientists and ML engineers to monitor, analyze, and protect their ML models, LLM applications, GenAI systems, and AI agents in a unified platform without leaving the SageMaker ecosystem. This seamless integration allows you to leverage Fiddler's powerful monitoring capabilities—including drift detection, performance tracking, and root cause analysis features—while maintaining your existing SageMaker workflows and security boundaries.
What is a Partner AI App?
Amazon SageMaker Partner AI Apps are fully managed AI/ML applications from AWS partners that run natively within your SageMaker environment. Think of them as pre-built, enterprise-ready applications that integrate seamlessly with your existing AWS infrastructure—no complex deployments or external accounts required.
Key Benefits:
Secure by Design: Applications run entirely within your AWS account, maintaining your existing security boundaries and compliance requirements
Unified Experience: Access partner tools directly from SageMaker Studio alongside your notebooks, models, and datasets
Simplified Procurement: Subscribe through AWS Marketplace with consolidated billing on your AWS invoice
Managed Infrastructure: AWS handles the underlying infrastructure while you focus on using the application
How It Works: When subscribing to a Partner AI App like Fiddler, AWS provisions the application within your SageMaker domain. Your team can then access it through SageMaker Studio with single sign-on, use it via APIs from notebooks, and integrate it into your ML workflows—all while keeping your data within your AWS environment.
This approach eliminates the traditional challenges of third-party tool integration: no separate accounts to manage, no data movement across boundaries, and no complex networking configurations.

For Users
Once your administrator has deployed the Fiddler Partner AI App, you can begin monitoring, analyzing, and protecting your ML models and AI applications. Our User Guide provides step-by-step instructions for accessing the Fiddler interface through SageMaker Studio and connecting via the Python client SDK from your notebooks.
Note: Before getting started, confirm with your administrator that:
The Fiddler Partner AI App has been deployed and is in "Deployed" status
Your username has been granted appropriate access permissions
You have been assigned the necessary IAM roles for Partner AI App access
You understand which access method is available in your organization:
SageMaker Studio access: Launch Fiddler directly from the Studio interface
Direct link access: Access Fiddler via a pre-signed URL generated through AWS CLI
Some organizations may only permit direct link access, while others allow both. Your administrator will inform you which option(s) are available.
