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.
What happens when you enable versioning for an S3 bucket?
AAll objects are encrypted.
BOlder versions are deleted.
CMultiple object versions can be stored.
DAccess is restricted to the latest version.
Explanation
Enabling versioning allows storage of multiple versions of the same object, while others are false statements.
Q82
Which AWS service is ideal for real-time analytics on streaming data?
AAmazon Kinesis
BAmazon S3
CAmazon RDS
DAmazon EC2
Explanation
Amazon Kinesis is designed specifically for real-time data processing, unlike other services which are not tailored for streaming analytics.
Q83
A company needs a scalable machine learning model to serve predictions. What should they use?
AAWS Lambda
BAmazon SageMaker
CAmazon EC2
Explanation
Amazon SageMaker is specifically designed to build and deploy scalable ML models, unlike the others which are more general purpose.
Q84
What happens when you increase the 'max_depth' parameter in a decision tree model?
AModel accuracy always increases
BRisk of overfitting increases
CTraining time decreases
DBias decreases significantly
Explanation
Increasing 'max_depth' often leads to overfitting, which can reduce the model's generalization to unseen data.
Q85
Which service would you use for real-time data processing in AWS?
AAmazon Kinesis
BAmazon S3
CAWS Lambda
DAWS Glue
Explanation
Amazon Kinesis is designed for real-time data processing, while S3 is for storage, Lambda can handle code execution, and Glue is mainly for ETL.
Q86
A company needs to deploy a machine learning model with minimal operational overhead. Which service should they choose?
AAmazon SageMaker
BAmazon EC2
CAWS Batch
DAWS Lambda
Explanation
Amazon SageMaker simplifies model deployment, unlike EC2 and Lambda which require more setup.
Q87
You are configuring an AWS IAM policy. What happens if the policy denies access to a resource?
AAccess is allowed conditionally.
BAccess is completely denied.
CAccess may be granted under certain conditions.
DThe action is logged for review.
Explanation
In IAM, a deny statement always takes precedence over allow statements.
Q88
Which service is best for real-time data analytics?
AAmazon Kinesis
BAWS Glue
CAmazon RDS
DAWS Batch
Explanation
Amazon Kinesis supports real-time analytics; others are not designed for that specific purpose.
Q89
A company needs to identify the top 1% of customers based on spending. Which ML model type is most appropriate?
ARegression model
BClustering model
CClassification model
DAnomaly detection model
Explanation
A classification model can effectively categorize customers based on spending; regression is for continuous outputs, clustering for group similarity, and anomaly detection for rare events.
Q90
You are configuring an AWS SageMaker training job and select a dataset that has missing values. What should you do?
ASubmit the job; SageMaker handles it.
BPerform data imputation beforehand.
CIgnore the missing values.
DUse a simpler model.
Explanation
Performing data imputation is necessary to handle missing values effectively; SageMaker does not automatically fix them, and ignoring or simplifying won't provide accurate results.
