Besides passing the dataset through the inputs parameter in the estimator, you can also pass the dataset through script_params and get the data path (mounting point) in your training script via arguments. This way, you can keep your training script independent of azureml-sdk. In other words, you will be able use the same training script for local debugging and remote training on any cloud platform.
Example:
from azureml.train.sklearn import SKLearn
script_params = {
# mount the dataset on the remote compute and pass the mounted path as an argument to the training script
'--data-folder': mnist_ds.as_named_input('mnist').as_mount(), '--regularization': 0.5
}
est = SKLearn(source_directory=script_folder,
script_params=script_params,
compute_target=compute_target,
environment_definition=env,
entry_script='train_mnist.py')
# Run the experiment
run = experiment.submit(est)
run.wait_for_completion(show_output=True)
