This is a WebUI extension to help user migrate existing workload (inference, train, ckpt merge etc.) from local server or standalone server to AWS Cloud.
Notice : This extension currently only support stable-diffusion-webui running on Linux platform, we are still working on support other platforms in the near future.
If you have not install the Stable Diffusion WebUI, or the proper version of the extensions this project supports, please refer to this step for setup.
- Install the middleware by click the link to navigate to AWS CloudFormation console to install CloudFormation template directly, input the parameter accordingly, note the aigcbucketname is the bucket to store all your solution assets, email is the mail address you register to receive notification for events like model training complete, the apikey is the basic authentication for your api url connection, the trainmodelinferencetype is the ec2 instance type you choose to handle the workload like ckpt merge that can be handled by cpu enough.:

For users who need explicit IAM permissions for strict account control, we provide CloudFormation template to help system administrators create IAM roles with minimal permissions, user can create & delete middleware CloudFormation templates through newly such created roles.
Create new minimum role first, e.g. sd-min-role.
Specify such role in Cloudformation creation.
Notice : We prefer to deploy our solution in us-east-1 region, the reason is that in other region there is an existing S3 CORS issue which will block user to upload inference config for around 2 hours. That mean user need to wait around 2 hours after deploy the middleware to do the inference job. We will keep monitoring the progress of this issue.
Prerequisite To set up the development environment, you will need have AWS account and tools with preferred version below to install from source code:
- NPM, Node
- AWS CDK
- Docker
-
Deploy the project to your AWS account (make sure your current profile has Administrator access, with AWS CDK, Docker installed):
aws ecr-public get-login-password --region us-east-1 | docker login --username AWS --password-stdin public.ecr.aws cd infrastructure/ npm install npx cdk bootstrap npx cdk deploy
You can specify the following three parameters:
- sub-email-address: your subscribe email to receive notification, the email will get endpoint deployment error
- api-token: your token of api key for api authentication
- util-instance-type: c2 instance type for operations including ckpt merge, model create etc. Candidate is [ml.r5.large, ml.r5.xlarge, ml.c6i.2xlarge, ml.c6i.4xlarge,ml.r5.large]
npx cdk deploy --parameters api-token=<XXXXXXX>\ --parameters sub-email-address=<[email protected]>\ --parameters util-instance-type=<ml.r5.large | ml.r5.xlarge| ml.c6i.2xlarge | ml.c6i.4xlarge | ml.r5.large>
The project build and deployment will take about 25 minutes and the first time can be longer due to container image packaging. Once the project deployed successfully to your AWS account, you will see output similar below:
Stable-diffusion-aws-extension-middleware-stack: creating CloudFormation changeset... ✅ Stable-diffusion-aws-extension-middleware-stack ✨ Deployment time: 218.39s Outputs: Stable-diffusion-aws-extension-middleware-stack.ApiGatewayUrl = {API_GATEWAY_URL} // this url will needed later Stable-diffusion-aws-extension-middleware-stack.S3BucketName = {YOUR_S3_BUCKET_LOCATION} Stable-diffusion-aws-extension-middleware-stack.SNSTopicName = {SNS_TOPIC} Stack ARN: arn:aws:cloudformation:us-east-1:{ACCOUNT_NUMBER}:stack/Stable-diffusion-aws-extension-middleware-stack/{ARN}
-
Go to AWS CloudFormation console, find the stack you just created, click "Outputs" tab, you will see the API Gateway URL, API Token. You will need them later.
-
Go back the WebUI console, and choose "AWS SageMaker" tab, enter the API Gateway URL and API token you just got from CloudFormation/CDK output, click "Update Setting" and "Test Connection" button to make sure the connection is successful. Or you can create new file called
sagemaker_ui.json
for the same purpose, the file should be placed under stable diffusion root folder and the content should be like below:{ "api_gateway_url": "{API_GATEWAY_URL}", "api_token": "{API_GATEWAY_KEY}" }
Please refer to user guide for following detailed operations.
Stable Diffusion WebUI is a popular open-source GitHub project that provides an intuitive and user-friendly interface for data scientists and developers to interact with pre-trained txt2img/img2img model, e.g. Dreambooth. The project has gained traction in the community (forks/stars/prs) for its ability to streamline the process of training, evaluating, and deploying models. As the demand for scalable and efficient machine learning solutions continues to rise, the Stable Diffusion WebUI project has emerged as a go-to tool for many user. Some user existing workflow is shown below that the data scientists had to jump from customized WebUI, EC2 and manual scripts to accomplished a single model finetune process, which are:
- time consuming: the model training is executed on a standalone server that leading long training time (30-40 minutes per model) and no scalable workaround;
- error prone: data training, model (CKPT) packaging, endpoint deployment, UI update, result validation are not in a single panel;
- easily out-dated: functional feature of WebUI and community extension keep evolving, making existing customized WebUI laborious to sync with upstream community;
Thus we plan to contribute a solution aiming to mitigate above issue and provide a lite, decouple and user friendly AWS SageMaker based extension, in response to this growing demand and specific user requirement. We integrate WebUI with AWS SageMaker, a fully managed service that allows users to build, train, and deploy machine learning models in the cloud. This extension will enable users to leverage the power of AWS SageMaker as the backend for model training and inference. With the AWS customized extension in place, Stable Diffusion WebUI will offer its users a more streamlined and cost-effective solution to optimize their existing workflows, including model training/finetune, inference and iteration with fast community pace.
We have provided a Stable Diffusion WebUI extension and AWS middleware for user, and user will install such extension by importing provided GitHub URL and AWS middleware by launch offered CloudFormation template in AWS console.
Brief user tutorial will be: User will first install the extension, extra tab will be installed for user to manager AWS credential, building AWS native SD model etc. then user will navigate to original txt2img tab, configure setting like CFG scale, batch count/size etc., then click 'Generate on Cloud' button to get the generated image. Thus providing user another alternative to utilize cloud resource without break existing user experience. Please refer to user guide for more details.
Diagram below is the brief view of internal workflow between our extension and middleware, user will keep launching community WebUI onto standalone EC2/local server with our extension installed, while the training and inference part will be pass onto AWS cloud (SageMaker, S3 etc.) through the RESTful API provided by middleware installed on user’s AWS account. Note the middleware is per AWS account, means it could be installed separately as work node to communicate with WebUI as control node, user only need to input endpoint URL and API key per account to decide which specific AWS account will be used for successive jobs.
The major function of middleware is to provide RESTful API for WebUI extension to interact with AWS cloud resource (SageMaker, S3 etc.) with OpenAPI conformant schema, it will handling the request authentication, request dispatch to specific SageMaker/S3 API (SageMaker.jumpstart/model/predictor/estimator/tuner/utils etc.) and model lifecycle. Diagram below is the overall architecture of middleware, including API Gateway and Lambda to fulfill the RESTful API function and Step Function to orchestrate the model lifecycle.
- Users in the WebUI console will use the assigned API token to trigger a request to API Gateway while being authenticated. (Note: AWS credentials are not required in AWS WebUI)
- API Gateway will route requests to Lambda with different functions according to URL prefixes to implement corresponding tasks (for example, model uploading, checkpoint merging), model training, and model inference. At the same time, the Lambda function records operational metadata into DynamoDB (eg, inferred parameters, model name) for subsequent query and correlation.
- During the training process, the Step Function will be called to orchestrate the training process, which includes using Amazon SageMaker for training and SNS for training status notification. During the inference process, the Lambda function will call Amazon SageMaker for asynchronous inference. Training data, models and checkpoints will be stored in S3 buckets separated by different prefixes.
