Question 261 of 280

Single answer
You work for an organization that operates a streaming music service. You have a custom production model that is serving a “next song” recommendation based on a user's recent listening history. Your model is deployed on a Vertex AI endpoint. You recently retrained the same model by using fresh data. The model received positive test results offline. You now want to test the new model in production while minimizing complexity. What should you do?
ACreate a new Vertex AI endpoint for the new model and deploy the new model to that new endpoint. Build a service to randomly send 5% of production traffic to the new endpoint. Monitor end-user metrics such as listening time. If end-user metrics improve between models over time, gradually increase the percentage of production traffic sent to the new endpoint.
BCapture incoming prediction requests in BigQuery. Create an experiment in Vertex AI Experiments. Run batch predictions for both models using the captured data. Use the user’s selected song to compare the models performance side by side. If the new model’s performance metrics are better than the previous model, deploy the new model to production.
CDeploy the new model to the existing Vertex AI endpoint. Use traffic splitting to send 5% of production traffic to the new model. Monitor end-user metrics, such as listening time. If end-user metrics improve between models over time, gradually increase the percentage of production traffic sent to the new model.
DConfigure a model monitoring job for the existing Vertex AI endpoint. Configure the monitoring job to detect prediction drift and set a threshold for alerts. Update the model on the endpoint from the previous model to the new model. If you receive an alert of prediction drift, revert to the previous model.
Correct Answer: C

Deploy the new model to the existing Vertex AI endpoint. Use traffic splitting to send 5% of production traffic to the new model. Monitor end-user metrics, such as listening time. If end-user metrics improve between models over time, gradually increase the percentage of production traffic sent to the new model.
