Amazon Web Services AWS Certified AI Practitioner AIF-C01 Question # 4 Topic 1 Discussion

Real-time inference is designed to provide immediate, low-latency predictions, which is necessary when the company requires near real-time latency for its ML models. This option is optimal when there is a need for fast responses, even with large input data sizes and substantial processing times.

Option A (Correct): "Real-time inference": This is the correct answer because it supports low-latency requirements, which are essential for real-time applications where quick response times are needed.

Option B: "Serverless inference" is incorrect because it is more suited for intermittent, small-scale inference workloads, not for continuous, large-scale, low-latency needs.

Option C: "Asynchronous inference" is incorrect because it is used for workloads that do not require immediate responses.

Option D: "Batch transform" is incorrect as it is intended for offline, large-batch processing where immediate response is not necessary.
