To quickly get started with the Tencent Cloud TI Platform (Tencent Intelligent Platform), follow these steps:
1. Understand the TI Platform
The Tencent Cloud TI Platform is a suite of AI and big data tools designed to help developers and enterprises build, train, and deploy machine learning models efficiently. It includes services like TI-ONE (AI training platform), TI-EMS (model management), and TI-Accel (accelerated computing).
2. Access the Platform
- Log in to the Tencent Cloud Console.
- Search for "TI Platform" or navigate to "Artificial Intelligence" > "TI Platform".
3. Key Services & How to Use Them
TI-ONE (AI Training Platform)
- Use Case: Train custom machine learning models (e.g., image recognition, NLP).
- How to Start:
- Create a new workspace.
- Upload datasets (supporting formats like CSV, TFRecord).
- Choose a pre-built algorithm (e.g., TensorFlow, PyTorch) or bring your own.
- Configure compute resources (GPU/CPU clusters).
- Start training and monitor progress.
TI-EMS (Model Management & Deployment)
- Use Case: Deploy trained models as APIs for real-time inference.
- How to Start:
- Import models from TI-ONE or upload directly.
- Configure auto-scaling and endpoint deployment.
- Test the API using the built-in dashboard.
TI-Accel (Accelerated Computing)
- Use Case: High-performance computing for large-scale AI workloads.
- How to Start:
- Select GPU-accelerated instances (e.g., NVIDIA T4, V100).
- Optimize training with distributed computing support.
4. Example Workflow (Image Classification)
- Upload Dataset: A labeled image dataset (e.g., cats vs. dogs).
- Train Model: Use TI-ONE with a PyTorch-based CNN model.
- Deploy Model: Export to TI-EMS and expose as a REST API.
- Inference: Call the API to classify new images in real time.
5. Recommended Tencent Cloud Services for AI/Big Data
- Cloud Storage (COS): Store datasets efficiently.
- TencentDB: Manage structured data for training.
- Tencent Cloud Edge Computing: Deploy AI at the edge for low-latency inference.
Start with TI-ONE’s pre-built templates (e.g., sentiment analysis, object detection) to accelerate development. For large-scale needs, leverage TI-Accel’s GPU clusters.
