AI-102 Implement computer vision solutions Practice Question
You are deploying a Custom Vision model to a production environment. The model must handle 100 predictions per second with low latency. Which deployment option should you choose?
⚠ Common exam trap
Candidates often assume exporting a model as a Docker container (Option B) is always the best for performance, but they overlook the operational overhead and lack of built-in scaling for high-throughput cloud predictions, whereas the paid endpoint is optimized for exactly this scenario.
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Use a paid tier prediction endpoint with sufficient capacity.
A paid tier prediction endpoint in Azure Custom Vision is designed to handle production-scale workloads with dedicated compute resources, supporting up to 100 predictions per second with low latency. The Free tier is rate-limited and cannot sustain this throughput, while exporting as a Docker container introduces additional overhead and scaling complexity that may not guarantee the required latency or throughput without manual orchestration.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Use the Free tier prediction endpoint.
Why it's wrong here
Limited to low throughput.
- ✗
Export the model as a Docker container and run it on Azure Container Instances.
Why it's wrong here
Suitable for edge scenarios, but not the simplest for cloud.
- ✗
Use the Training API to make predictions.
Why it's wrong here
Training API is for training, not prediction.
- ✓
Use a paid tier prediction endpoint with sufficient capacity.
Why this is correct
Provides dedicated resources for high throughput.
