Serverless inference in SageMaker is designed for workloads with intermittent traffic and unpredictable usage patterns, which aligns with the media company's periodic high-traffic windows. Because the payload is less than 4 MB (serverless inference supports payloads up to 4 MB), serverless inference is appropriate and provisioned concurrency ensures the endpoints are warm and ready during peak times to minimize latency.

From AWS documentation:

“Amazon SageMaker Serverless Inference is ideal for applications with intermittent or unpredictable traffic. You can optionally enable provisioned concurrency to ensure that your endpoints are always ready to process requests during anticipated peak traffic hours.”

Using real-time inference with auto scaling (A) incurs a higher cost as it requires always-on instances. Batch transform (D) is for offline, large-scale inferences, not low-latency real-time inference. Asynchronous inference (C) is typically used for large payloads (>4 MB) or long processing times.

Linear least squares regression is a method of fitting a linear model to a set of data by minimizing the sum of squared errors between the observed and predicted values. The solution of the linear least squares problem can be obtained by solving the normal equations, which are given by

ATAx=ATb,

where A is the matrix of explanatory variables, b is the vector of response variables, and x is the vector of unknown coefficients.

However, if the matrix A has two features that are perfectly linearly dependent, then the matrix ATA will be singular, meaning that it does not have a unique inverse. This implies that the normal equations do not have a unique solution, and the linear least squares problem is ill-posed. In other words, there are infinitely many values of x that can satisfy the normal equations, and the linear model is not identifiable.

This can be an issue for the linear least squares regression model, as it can lead to instability, inconsistency, and poor generalization of the model. It can also cause numerical difficulties when trying to solve the normal equations using computational methods, such as matrix inversion or decomposition. Therefore, it is advisable to avoid or remove the linearly dependent features from the matrix A before applying the linear least squares regression model.

The correct solution for granting permissions for data preprocessing is to use the following steps:

Create an IAM role that has permissions to create Amazon SageMaker Processing jobs. Attach the role to the SageMaker notebook instance. This role allows the ML specialist to run Processing jobs from the notebook code1

Create an Amazon SageMaker Processing job with an IAM role that has read and write permissions to the relevant S3 bucket, and appropriate KMS and ECR permissions. This role allows the Processing job to access the data in the encrypted S3 bucket, decrypt it with the KMS CMK, and pull the container image from ECR23

The other options are incorrect because they either miss some permissions or use unnecessary steps. For example:

Option A uses a single IAM role for both the notebook instance and the Processing job. This role may have more permissions than necessary for the notebook instance, which violates the principle of least privilege4

Option C sets up both an S3 endpoint and a KMS endpoint in the default VPC. These endpoints are not required for the Processing job to access the data in the encrypted S3 bucket. They are only needed if the Processing job runs in network isolation mode, which is not specified in the question.

Option D uses the access key and secret key of the IAM user with appropriate KMS and ECR permissions. This is not a secure way to pass credentials to the Processing job. It also requires the ML specialist to manage the IAM user and the keys.
