Professional Machine Learning Engineer Pipeline Practice Questions
The free Professional Machine Learning Engineer questions that deal with pipeline, with answers and explanations. The full bank and the timed practice test cover every topic the exam asks about.
Question #1
You want to rebuild your ML pipeline for structured data on Google Cloud. You are using PySpark to conduct data transformations at scale, but your pipelines are taking over 12 hours to run. To speed up development and pipeline run time, you want to use a serverless tool and SQL syntax. You have already moved your raw data into Cloud Storage. How should you build the pipeline on Google Cloud while meeting the speed and processing requirements?
Correct answer: D
Explanation
BigQuery is serverless and SQL-based, so the transformations run at warehouse scale without Spark or cluster tuning, and results are written straight to a new table. Dataproc still requires managing clusters and SparkSQL jobs.
Question #9
You are developing a Kubeflow pipeline on Google Kubernetes Engine. The first step in the pipeline is to issue a query against BigQuery. You plan to use the results of that query as the input to the next step in your pipeline. You want to achieve this in the easiest way possible. What should you do?
Correct answer: D
Explanation
Loading the ready-made BigQuery Query component from the Kubeflow Pipelines repository adds a proven query step with no custom code. Writing a custom component or API script is extra work, and running the query by hand breaks pipeline automation.
