Notes & disambiguation

  • On November 30, 2023, AWS launched a redesigned Amazon SageMaker Studio experience with decoupled, fast-starting JupyterLab 4 and Code Editor (Code-OSS) applications, renaming the original monolithic JupyterLab 1/3 interface to Amazon SageMaker Studio Classic.
  • New Studio Classic application creation on JupyterLab 1 was blocked after July 1, 2024, critical fixes for Studio Classic on JupyterLab 3 ended after December 31, 2024, and Studio Classic is closed to new onboarding.
  • Do not confuse Amazon SageMaker Studio (the ML IDE within Amazon SageMaker AI configured via aws_sagemaker_domain) with Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio (the cross-service data, analytics, and AI workspace launched in December 2024).
