Amazon MLA-C01 Exam - Topic 1 Question 12 Discussion

Actual exam question for Amazon's MLA-C01 exam
Question #: 12
Topic #: 1
[All MLA-C01 Questions]

An ML engineer needs to implement a solution to host a trained ML model. The rate of requests to the model will be inconsistent throughout the day.

The ML engineer needs a scalable solution that minimizes costs when the model is not in use. The solution also must maintain the model's capacity to respond to requests during times of peak usage.

Which solution will meet these requirements?

I think option D is the best. Auto scaling is key for fluctuating requests.

Wait, can SageMaker really auto scale like that? Sounds too good to be true!

B seems too rigid for fluctuating requests.

I think A could work too, but fixed concurrency might limit flexibility.

I'm a big fan of the serverless approach, but Option A with Lambda doesn't seem like the right fit here. The SageMaker auto-scaling in Option D is the way to go.

Haha, using Lambda functions with fixed concurrency? That's like trying to put a square peg in a round hole. Option D is clearly the way to go.

Option C with the Application Load Balancer could work, but it might be overkill for this use case. The SageMaker auto-scaling in Option D seems more straightforward.

I'm not sure about Option B. Manually setting the number of tasks on ECS seems like it might not be flexible enough to handle the changing demand.

I recall that using multiple copies of the model in option C could help with load balancing, but it might not be the most cost-efficient solution when the model is idle.

I feel like option D with SageMaker and auto-scaling makes the most sense since it can adjust based on demand, but I’m not entirely clear on how the scaling policies work.

I think deploying on Amazon ECS with Fargate could work, but it seems like having a static number of tasks might not be cost-effective during low usage times.

Option D sounds like the best solution. Automatically scaling the SageMaker endpoint based on CloudWatch metrics seems like a great way to handle the inconsistent request rate.

I remember we discussed using AWS Lambda for handling variable request rates, but I'm not sure if fixed concurrency is the best approach for this scenario.

The SageMaker options (C and D) seem like the most straightforward way to address the requirements. I'm not as familiar with the Lambda and ECS solutions, so I'd want to do some more research on how they would work in this scenario.

I'm leaning towards option D as well. The ability to dynamically adjust the number of instances based on usage patterns seems like it would meet the requirements of scalability and cost-effectiveness.

Option C with the Application Load Balancer routing traffic between multiple copies of the model on a SageMaker endpoint also seems like a good choice. That way you can handle fluctuations in demand without over-provisioning resources.

I'm a bit confused by the different options. Can someone explain the differences between the AWS Lambda and Amazon ECS solutions? I'm not sure I fully understand how they would work for this use case.

Yeah, it keeps costs low when usage is low. Smart choice!
