AWS nova documentation change

Service: nova · 2025-07-25 · Documentation low

File: nova/latest/userguide/customize-fine-tune-evaluate.md

Summary

Removed detailed model evaluation documentation and replaced with link to SageMaker user guide section

Security assessment

The changes remove technical implementation details about model evaluation benchmarks and job configuration without any security-related content. This appears to be documentation simplification/streamlining rather than addressing security issues or adding security features.

-## Available benchmark tasks
-
-A sample code package is available that demonstrates how to calculate benchmark metrics using the SageMaker AI model evaluation feature for Amazon Nova. To access the code packages, see [sample-Nova-lighteval-custom-task](https://github.com/aws-samples/sample-Nova-lighteval-custom-task/).
-
-Here is a list of the supported, available industry standard benchmarks. You can specify the following benchmarks in the `eval_task` parameter:

-## Understanding the recipe parameters

-###### Run configuration
-
-The following is a general run configuration and an explanation of the parameters involved.
-    
-    
-    run:
-      name: eval_job_name 
-      model_type: amazon.nova-micro-v1:0:128k 
-      model_name_or_path: nova-micro/prod 
-      replicas: 1 
-      data_s3_path: ""
-      output_s3_path: s3://output_path
-
-  * `name`: (Required) A descriptive name for your evaluation job. This helps identify your job in the AWS console.
-
-  * `model_type`: (Required) Specifies the Amazon Nova model variant to use. Do not manually modify this field. Options include:
-
-    * `amazon.nova-micro-v1:0:128k`
-
-    * `amazon.nova-lite-v1:0:300k`
-
-    * `amazon.nova-pro-v1:0:300k`
-
-  * `model_name_or_path`: (Required) The path to the base model or S3 path for the post-trained checkpoint. Options include:
-
-    * `nova-micro/prod`
-
-    * `nova-lite/prod`
-
-    * `nova-pro/prod`
-
-    * (S3 path for the post-trained checkpoint) `s3://<escrow bucket>/<job id>/outputs/checkpoints`
-
-  * `replicas`: (Required) The number of compute instances to use for distributed training. You must set this value to 1 because multi-node is not supported.
-
-  * `data_s3_path`: (Required) The S3 path to the input dataset. Leave this parameter empty unless you are using the _bring your own dataset_ or _LLM as a judge_ recipe.
-
-  * `output_s3_path`: (Required) The S3 path to store output evaluation artifacts. Note that the output S3 bucket must be created by the same account that is creating the job.
