 Amazon SageMaker is a service that allows users to build, train, and deploy ML models on AWS. Amazon SageMaker endpoints are scalable and secure web services that can be used to perform real-time inference on ML models. An endpoint configuration defines the models that are deployed and the resources that are used by the endpoint. An endpoint configuration can have multiple production variants, each representing a different version or variant of a model. Users can specify the portion of the inferences served by each production variant using the initialVariantWeight parameter. Users can also programmatically update the endpoint configuration to change the portion of the inferences served by each production variant using the UpdateEndpointWeightsAndCapacities API. Therefore, option B is the best solution to satisfy the requirements with minimal effort.

Option A is incorrect because creating multiple endpoints for each model would incur more cost and complexity than using a single endpoint with multiple production variants. Moreover, controlling the invocation of different models at the application layer would require more custom logic and coordination than using the UpdateEndpointWeightsAndCapacities API. Option C is incorrect because Amazon SageMaker Neo is a service that allows users to optimize ML models for different hardware platforms, such as edge devices. It is not relevant to the problem of running multiple versions of a model in parallel for long periods of time. Option D is incorrect because Amazon SageMaker batch transform is a service that allows users to perform asynchronous inference on large datasets. It is not suitable for the problem of performing real-time inference on streaming data from device users.

Amazon SageMaker Autopilot is a fully managed solution that automatically explores different ML models and selects the most effective ones for a given prediction task. After model training, Amazon SageMaker Clarify can generate feature importance scores, identifying the top features in a straightforward, automated manner with minimal manual intervention.

By using SageMaker Autopilot, the data scientist can obtain the desired feature importance ranking for predictive attributes with minimal setup and low operational overhead, as opposed to manually configuring models in SageMaker.

The factors that will adversely impact the performance of the forecast model are:

Sales data is aggregated by week. This will reduce the granularity and resolution of the data, and make it harder to capture the daily patterns and variations in sales volume. The data scientist should request daily sales data from the source database to enable building a daily model, which will be more accurate and useful for the prediction task.

Sales data is missing zero entries for item sales. This will introduce bias and incompleteness in the data, and make it difficult to account for the items that have no demand or are out of stock. The data scientist should request that item sales data from the source database include zero entries to enable building the model, which will be more robust and realistic.

The other options are not valid because:

Detecting seasonality for the majority of stores will not be an issue, as sales data is highly consistent from week to week. Requesting categorical data to relate new stores with similar stores that have more historical data may not improve the model performance significantly, and may introduce unnecessary complexity and noise.

The sales data does not need to have more variance, as it reflects the actual demand and behavior of the customers. Requesting external sales data from other industries will not improve the model’s ability to generalize, but may introduce irrelevant and misleading information.

Only 100 MB of sales data is not a problem, as it is sufficient to train a forecast model with Amazon S3 and Amazon Forecast. Requesting 10 years of sales data will not provide much benefit, as it may contain outdated and obsolete information that does not reflect the current market trends and customer preferences.
