CertNexus Exam AIP-210 Topic 3 Question 17 Discussion

Workflow design patterns for machine learning pipelines are common solutions to recurring problems in building and managing machine learning workflows. One of these patterns is to represent a pipeline with a directed acyclic graph (DAG), which is a graph that consists of nodes and edges, where each node represents a step or task in the pipeline, and each edge represents a dependency or order between the tasks. A DAG has no cycles, meaning there is no way to start at one node and return to it by following the edges. A DAG can help visualize and organize the pipeline, as well as facilitate parallel execution, fault tolerance, and reproducibility.
