Google Exam Professional Machine Learning Engineer Topic 4 Question 85 Discussion

Actual exam question for Google's Professional Machine Learning Engineer exam
Question #: 85
Topic #: 4
[All Professional Machine Learning Engineer Questions]

You are developing a recommendation engine for an online clothing store. The historical customer transaction data is stored in BigQuery and Cloud Storage. You need to perform exploratory data analysis (EDA), preprocessing and model training. You plan to rerun these EDA, preprocessing, and training steps as you experiment with different types of algorithms. You want to minimize the cost and development effort of running these steps as you experiment. How should you configure the environment?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

Cost-effectiveness:User-managed notebooks in Vertex AI Workbench allow you to leverage pre-configured virtual machines with reasonable resource allocation, keeping costs lower compared to options involving managed notebooks or Dataproc clusters.

Development flexibility:User-managed notebooks offer full control over the environment, allowing you to install additional libraries or dependencies needed for your specific EDA, preprocessing, and model training tasks. This flexibility is crucial while experimenting with different algorithms.

BigQuery integration:The %%bigquery magic commands provide seamless integration with BigQuery within the Jupyter Notebook environment. This enables efficient querying and exploration of customer transaction data stored in BigQuery directly from the notebook, streamlining the workflow.

Other options and why they are not the best fit:

B) Managed notebook:While managed notebooks offer an easier setup, they might have limited customization options, potentially hindering your ability to install specific libraries or tools.

C) Dataproc Hub:Dataproc Hub focuses on running large-scale distributed workloads, and it might be overkill for your scenario involving exploratory analysis and experimentation with different algorithms. Additionally, it could incur higher costs compared to a user-managed notebook.

D) Dataproc cluster with spark-bigquery-connector:Similar to option C, using a Dataproc cluster with the spark-bigquery-connector would be more complex and potentially more expensive than using %%bigquery magic commands within a user-managed notebook for accessing BigQuery data.

I dunno, man, all these options sound like a lot of work. Can't we just have a button that says 'Make me a recommendation engine' and it just does it all for us? Where's the AI in all this?

Option D, hands down. Anything that involves Dataproc is bound to be a pain in the neck. I'll take the managed notebook and spark-bigquery-connector any day!

I agree with option D. Using the spark-bigquery-connector on a Dataproc cluster seems like a solid choice for this scenario.

I prefer option A. It's simpler to just use the default VM instance and the %%bigquery magic commands in Jupyter.

Hmm, I'm not sure any of these options are truly optimal. If I had to choose, I'd probably go with B, but I can't help but feel like there's a more elegant solution out there that would really streamline the whole process.

Wow, these options are all over the place! I'm torn between A and C, but I think I'd lean towards C to get the benefits of Dataproc without the added complexity of managing a separate Dataproc cluster.
