Exam Databricks-Machine-Learning-Professional Topic 11 Question 117 Discussion

Actual exam question for Databricks's Databricks-Machine-Learning-Professional exam
Question #: 117
Topic #: 11
A retail company wants to better forecast their sales of each SKU in every store in order to more accurately distribute their products. To achieve this, a Data Scientist proposes scaling their existing forecasting model to forecast individually for each combination of SKU and Store ID.
They have a cluster with 12 executors available in order to execute this. The current model is written using Pandas and the Prophet library for forecasting, with a Python function that receives a Pandas Data Frame with historic sales data as a parameter to train the forecasting model. For their next iteration, they want to improve the efficiency of this approach while using the least amount of effort and leveraging all available resources. Which approach will do this?

Suggested Answer: C Vote an answer

A grouped Pandas UDF lets you keep the existing Prophet-based pandas training function while distributing execution across the cluster. Grouping the Spark DataFrame by SKU and Store ID and applying the function runs one model per group in parallel on the executors, improving efficiency and leveraging all available resources with minimal refactoring.
