Topic #: 1

[All Professional Machine Learning Engineer Questions]

You are building a TensorFlow text-to-image generative model by using a dataset that contains billions of images with their respective captions. You want to create a low maintenance, automated workflow that reads the data from a Cloud Storage bucket collects statistics, splits the dataset into training/validation/test datasets performs data transformations trains the model using the training/validation datasets, and validates the model by using the test dataset. What should you do?

A. Use the Apache Airflow SDK to create multiple operators that use Dataflow and Vertex AI services. Deploy the workflow on Cloud Composer.
B. Use the MLFlow SDK and deploy it on a Google Kubernetes Engine cluster. Create multiple components that use Dataflow and Vertex AI services.
C. Use the Kubeflow Pipelines (KFP) SDK to create multiple components that use Dataflow and Vertex AI services. Deploy the workflow on Vertex AI Pipelines.
D. Use the TensorFlow Extended (TFX) SDK to create multiple components that use Dataflow and Vertex AI services. Deploy the workflow on Vertex AI Pipelines.

Selected Answer: C

If you use TensorFlow in an ML workflow that processes terabytes of structured data or text data, we recommend that you build your pipeline using TFX. For other use cases, we recommend that you build your pipeline using the Kubeflow Pipelines SDK https://cloud.google.com/vertex-ai/docs/pipelines/build-pipeline#sdk

Selected Answer: D

I would vote for D. If you read the question carefully you will see that you're processing billions of images with captions (TEXT+ images). So we have to preprocess text. Plus, you want to build a TensorFlow text-to-image generative model. For me it points to the option D. Although at the very beginning C was my primary choice.

TFX is going to be easier than kubeflow with custom code, as it basically does exactly what is listed there, by default.

KFP Pipelines: Kubeflow Pipelines (KFP) is a popular open-source framework for building and deploying machine learning workflows. It provides a user-friendly SDK for defining pipelines as components and simplifies workflow orchestration. Vertex AI Pipelines Integration: Vertex AI Pipelines is a managed service from Google Cloud that integrates seamlessly with KFP. You can deploy your KFP-defined workflow on Vertex AI Pipelines, leveraging its features like scheduling, monitoring, and versioning. Dataflow and Vertex AI Services: Both Dataflow and Vertex AI are Google Cloud services well-suited for this workflow

why not others? A. Airflow with Dataflow and Vertex AI: While Airflow is a powerful workflow management tool, deploying it on Cloud Composer adds additional complexity compared to the managed environment of Vertex AI Pipelines. B. MLflow with Dataflow and Vertex AI: MLflow focuses primarily on model lifecycle management. While it can be used for building pipelines, KFP offers a more specialized and user-friendly approach for this specific use case. D. TFX with Dataflow and Vertex AI: TFX is a comprehensive end-to-end ML platform. While it offers several functionalities, it might be an overkill for this scenario focusing on data processing, training, and validation. KFP provides a simpler solution for this specific workflow.

Selected Answer: D

Airflow (A): While versatile, Airflow often requires more manual configuration and integration with ML services, potentially increasing maintenance effort. MLFlow (B): MLFlow focuses on experiment tracking and model management, lacking built-in pipeline components for data processing and model training. Kubeflow Pipelines (C): KFP is flexible but requires more setup and infrastructure management compared to TFX's managed services.
