The AWS Certified Machine Learning Engineer – Associate (MLA-C01) exam validates your skills in building, training, and deploying machine learning models on AWS. It is ideal for those looking to specialize in machine learning.
A company needs to secure its machine learning model endpoints. Which AWS feature should they enable?
AAPI Gateway
BCloudFront
CIAM Policies
DAmazon SNS
Explanation
IAM Policies tightly control access to resources, while API Gateway is for endpoint management, CloudFront is for content delivery, and SNS handles notifications.
Q292
Which service provides automated model training and tuning?
AAmazon SageMaker
BAWS Glue
CAmazon QuickSight
DAWS Lambda
Explanation
Amazon SageMaker is designed for building, training, and deploying machine learning models, while the others serve different purposes.
Q293
A company needs to deploy a machine learning model with low latency. What should they focus on?
ABatch processing
BEdge computing solutions
CData archiving
DSequential data storage
Explanation
Edge computing solutions enhance low-latency performance by processing data near its source, unlike options A, C, and D.
Q294
What happens when an AWS Lambda function exceeds its timeout limit?
AIt continues running until finished.
BIt stops and returns an error.
CIt resumes on the next trigger.
DIts execution is throttled.
Explanation
Once the timeout limit is reached, the Lambda function stops executing and an error is returned, while the other options incorrectly describe its behavior.
Q295
What service automates machine learning model deployment?
AAmazon SageMaker
BAWS Lambda
CAmazon EC2
DAmazon RDS
Explanation
Amazon SageMaker provides built-in features for automated deployment and scaling, while others are not specifically designed for ML.
Q296
A company needs real-time predictions for incoming data streams. Which AWS service is ideal?
AAWS Batch
BAmazon Kinesis
CAWS Glue
DAmazon EMR
Explanation
Amazon Kinesis is designed for processing real-time data streams, unlike the others which are not optimized for this use case.
Q297
What happens when an ML model has high bias?
AUnderfits the training data
BOverfits the training data
CPerforms well on new data
DImproves with more features
Explanation
High bias indicates the model is too simplistic and fails to capture the underlying patterns, leading to underfitting.
Q298
A company needs to securely share data with multiple teams in AWS. Which AWS service should they use?
AAWS Lake Formation
BAmazon S3
CAmazon RDS
DAWS Glue
Explanation
AWS Lake Formation simplifies securing and sharing data; S3 is for storage, RDS is for databases, and Glue is for ETL processes.
Q299
What happens when you deploy a non-compliant machine learning model on AWS?
AIt will automatically fix itself.
BIt won't deploy at all.
CIt may produce inaccurate results.
DIt will be monitored continuously.
Explanation
A non-compliant model can still be deployed but may yield inaccurate or unreliable predictions; it won't fix automatically or be prevented from deploying.
Q300
You are configuring an AWS SageMaker training job. Which parameter is crucial for specifying the algorithm used?
ATraining Job Name
BInput Data URI
CAlgorithm Specification
DInstance Type
Explanation
The Algorithm Specification parameter defines the specific algorithm to use, whereas the other options configure job attributes or resources.
