Azure Data Scientist Associate Certification Guide

By: Andreas Botsikas, Michael Hlobil

Overview of this book

The Azure Data Scientist Associate Certification Guide helps you acquire practical knowledge for machine learning experimentation on Azure. It covers everything you need to pass the DP-100 exam and become a certified Azure Data Scientist Associate. Starting with an introduction to data science, you'll learn the terminology that will be used throughout the book and then move on to the Azure Machine Learning (Azure ML) workspace. You'll discover the studio interface and manage various components, such as data stores and compute clusters. Next, the book focuses on no-code and low-code experimentation, and shows you how to use the Automated ML wizard to locate and deploy optimal models for your dataset. You'll also learn how to run end-to-end data science experiments using the designer provided in Azure ML Studio. You'll then explore the Azure ML Software Development Kit (SDK) for Python and advance to creating experiments and publishing models using code. The book also guides you in optimizing your model's hyperparameters using Hyperdrive before demonstrating how to use responsible AI tools to interpret and debug your models. Once you have a trained model, you'll learn to operationalize it for batch or real-time inferences and monitor it in production. By the end of this Azure certification study guide, you'll have gained the knowledge and the practical skills required to pass the DP-100 exam.

Chapter 3: Azure Machine Learning Studio Components

In this chapter, you will explore the Azure Machine Learning Studio (Azure ML Studio) web interface, an immersive experience for managing the end-to-end machine learning life cycle. You will get an overview of the available components that allow you to manage your workspace resources, author machine learning models, and track your assets, including your datasets, trained models, and their published endpoints.

In this chapter, we're going to cover the following main topics:

  • Interacting with the Azure ML resource
  • Exploring the Azure ML Studio experience
  • Authoring experiments within Azure ML Studio
  • Tracking data science assets in Azure ML Studio
  • Managing infrastructure resources in Azure ML Studio
