Amazon SageMaker Notebook Instances now provisions an option to disable internet access and lifecycle customization

Amazon SageMaker Notebook Instance Configuration can now be customized and it also provides the ability to choose to disconnect the notebook instance from the Internet. By using the Lifecycle configuration option you can now extend the customization of the notebook instance. This new feature will enable you to implement a custom script at the designated stages of the notebook instance’s lifecycle at the time when the notebook instance is instantiated or when it is created. You can also create Jupyter Notebook that is disconnected from the Public Internet. With the new update, you can disable internet access and use the Virtual Private Cloud configuration to define whether the notebook instance can access the Public Internet which will provide you more control over who accesses your data information.
