Databricks Exam Databricks-Machine-Learning-Associate Topic 1 Question 5 Discussion

Actual exam question for Databricks's Databricks-Machine-Learning-Associate exam
Question #: 5
Topic #: 1
[All Databricks-Machine-Learning-Associate Questions]

A data scientist has written a feature engineering notebook that utilizes the pandas library. As the size of the data processed by the notebook increases, the notebook's runtime is drastically increasing, but it is processing slowly as the size of the data included in the process increases.

Which of the following tools can the data scientist use to spend the least amount of time refactoring their notebook to scale with big data?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

The pandas API on Spark provides a way to scale pandas operations to big data while minimizing the need for refactoring existing pandas code. It allows users to run pandas operations on Spark DataFrames, leveraging Spark's distributed computing capabilities to handle large datasets more efficiently. This approach requires minimal changes to the existing code, making it a convenient option for scaling pandas-based feature engineering notebooks.

Wait, we're supposed to be working with big data, not big egos. Let's keep this professional, folks.

I heard pandas had a secret side gig as a bodybuilder - that's why the notebook is running so slow!

This is a tough one, but I think I'd go with PySpark DataFrame API. It's the most straightforward option and should give the data scientist the most bang for their buck.

Feature Store sounds interesting, but I'm not sure it's the best fit for this specific use case. Probably better for production-ready models.
