Google Professional Machine Learning Engineer Question 150
Select 2Google Cloud PlatformYou are a Machine Learning Engineer tasked with setting up a collaborative environment for your data science team to develop and train machine learning models. The team requires integration with Google Cloud services, GPU/TPU support for training, and the ability to work within a fully managed environment. Which platform(s) would best meet these requirements?
- A
Google Cloud Workbench
- B
Colab Enterprise
- C
Notebooks on Dataproc
- D
JupyterLab installed on a local machine
- E
Google Sheets
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, B
Explanation
Google Cloud Workbench and Colab Enterprise both provide managed, collaborative environments that integrate seamlessly with Google Cloud services and support GPU/TPU acceleration. These features make them ideal for teams working on machine learning model development and training. Notebooks on Dataproc, while useful for Spark-based workflows, are not optimized for collaborative model development. Local JupyterLab installations and Google Sheets do not fulfill the requirements of being fully managed, cloud-integrated, and suitable for machine learning tasks.
- A. Correct.
Google Cloud Workbench is a fully managed environment designed for data science and machine learning workflows. It integrates well with Google Cloud services and supports GPU/TPU acceleration, making it a good choice for collaborative model development.
- B. Correct.
Colab Enterprise is a managed notebook environment specifically built for enterprise use. It supports GPU/TPU acceleration, integrates seamlessly with Google Cloud services, and is designed for collaboration, making it an ideal choice for the given requirements.
- C. Incorrect.
Notebooks on Dataproc are designed for use in Spark-based workflows and distributed data processing tasks. While they support integration with Google Cloud services, they are not as optimized for collaborative model development and training with GPUs/TPUs.
- D. Incorrect.
JupyterLab installed on a local machine can offer a development environment but lacks direct integration with Google Cloud services, managed infrastructure, and collaboration features, making it unsuitable for the requirements outlined.
- E. Incorrect.
Google Sheets is a spreadsheet application and is not designed for machine learning workflows or collaborative model development.
