Announcing Code Editor (based on VS Code – Open Source) in Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio

Today, AWS announces two complementary capabilities in the next generation of Amazon SageMaker that enhance the development experience for analytics, machine learning (ML), and GenAI teams: Code Editor and Multiple Spaces support.

The Code Editor, based on Code-OSS (Visual Studio Code – Open Source), provides a lightweight and powerful IDE with familiar shortcuts and terminal access, along with advanced debugging capabilities and refactoring tools. Teams can boost their productivity by accessing thousands of Visual Studio Code–compatible extensions from the Open VSX extension gallery. The Code Editor enables version control and cross-team collaboration through GitHub, GitLab or BitBucket repositories, while offering preconfigured Amazon SageMaker distribution for popular ML frameworks.

To maximize the benefits of Code Editor alongside other coding interfaces in Unified Studio, including JupyterLab , SageMaker now supports multiple spaces per user per project, allowing users to manage parallel work-streams with different computational needs. Each space maintains a 1-to-1 relationship with an application instance, enabling users to efficiently organize their storage and resource requirements. This enhancement provides the flexibility to access multiple applications and instances simultaneously, improving workflow management and productivity.

Code Editor and Multiple Spaces support are available in all Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio domains. For more information about AWS Regions where these features are available, see the AWS Regions table. To learn more, visit the Developer Guide.
