Note: This question is part of a series of questions that present the same scenario. Each question in the series contains a unique solution that might meet the stated goals. Some question sets might have more than one correct solution, while others might not have a correct solution.
After you answer a question in this section, you will NOT be able to return to it. As a result, these questions will not appear in the review screen.
You train and register a machine learning model.
You plan to deploy the model as a real-time web service. Applications must use key-based authentication to use the model.
You need to deploy the web service.
Solution:
Create an AciWebservice instance.
Set the value of the ssl_enabled property to True.
Deploy the model to the service.
Does the solution meet the goal?
Instead use only auth_enabled = TRUE
Note: Key-based authentication.
Web services deployed on AKS have key-based auth enabled by default. ACI-deployed services have key-based auth disabled by default, but you can enable it by setting auth_enabled = TRUE when creating the ACI web service. The following is an example of creating an ACI deployment configuration with key-based auth enabled.
deployment_config <- aci_webservice_deployment_config(cpu_cores = 1,
memory_gb = 1,
auth_enabled = TRUE)

You use the following Python code in a notebook to deploy a model as a web service:
The deployment fails.
You need to use the Python SDK in the notebook to determine the events that occurred during service deployment an initialization.
Which code segment should you use?
A set of CSV files contains sales records. All the CSV files have the same data schema.
Each CSV file contains the sales record for a particular month and has the filename sales.csv. Each file in stored in a folder that indicates the month and year when the data was recorded. The folders are in an Azure blob container for which a datastore has been defined in an Azure Machine Learning workspace. The folders are organized in a parent folder named sales to create the following hierarchical structure:
At the end of each month, a new folder with that month's sales file is added to the sales folder.
You plan to use the sales data to train a machine learning model based on the following requirements:
You must define a dataset that loads all of the sales data to date into a structure that can be easily converted to a dataframe.
You must be able to create experiments that use only data that was created before a specific previous month, ignoring any data that was added after that month.
You must register the minimum number of datasets possible.
You need to register the sales data as a dataset in Azure Machine Learning service workspace.
What should you do?
Specify the path.
Example:
The following code gets the workspace existing workspace and the desired datastore by name. And then passes the datastore and file locations to the path parameter to create a new TabularDataset, weather_ds.
from azureml.core import Workspace, Datastore, Dataset
datastore_name = 'your datastore name'
# get existing workspace
workspace = Workspace.from_config()
# retrieve an existing datastore in the workspace by name
datastore = Datastore.get(workspace, datastore_name)
# create a TabularDataset from 3 file paths in datastore
datastore_paths = [(datastore, 'weather/2018/11.csv'),
(datastore, 'weather/2018/12.csv'),
(datastore, 'weather/2019/*.csv')]
weather_ds = Dataset.Tabular.from_delimited_files(path=datastore_paths)
You plan to use automated machine learning to train a regression model. You have data that has features which have missing values, and categorical features with few distinct values.
You need to configure automated machine learning to automatically impute missing values and encode categorical features as part of the training task.
Which parameter and value pair should you use in the AutoMLConfig class?
Featurization str or FeaturizationConfig
Values: 'auto' / 'off' / FeaturizationConfig
Indicator for whether featurization step should be done automatically or not, or whether customized featurization should be used.
Column type is automatically detected. Based on the detected column type preprocessing/featurization is done as follows:
Categorical: Target encoding, one hot encoding, drop high cardinality categories, impute missing values.
Numeric: Impute missing values, cluster distance, weight of evidence.
DateTime: Several features such as day, seconds, minutes, hours etc.
Text: Bag of words, pre-trained Word embedding, text target encoding.
You are creating a machine learning model. You have a dataset that contains null rows.
You need to use the Clean Missing Data module in Azure Machine Learning Studio to identify and resolve the null and missing data in the dataset.
Which parameter should you use?
Remove entire row: Completely removes any row in the dataset that has one or more missing values. This is useful if the missing value can be considered randomly missing.
