Amazon SageMaker Feature Store

Fully managed feature repository inside SageMaker that stores, discovers and serves ML features for training and inference.

Amazon SageMaker Feature Store is the feature-management module of the SageMaker ML platform rather than a standalone product. Teams ingest features from S3, Redshift, Snowflake, Databricks Delta Lake, application logs or clickstreams into named feature groups, optionally applying a transformation at ingest time (counts, time-window aggregates). Feature groups keep both an online store for low-latency inference lookups and an offline store for point-in-time-correct training datasets, addressing the standard feature-store problem of keeping training and serving values consistent. Studio's visual interface makes feature groups searchable and taggable so teams can reuse existing features instead of rebuilding pipelines, and groups can be shared and discovered across AWS accounts. It only exists inside SageMaker and is billed as part of AWS usage rather than sold or priced separately.
