Explanation

Question Overview

Select the AWS service for building prediction models with no code.

Requirements to satisfy
  • 1「build and run machine learning prediction models with only GUI operations, without writing code」No-code ML = SageMaker Canvas
  • 2「including time-series forecasting」A no-code tool that also supports time-series forecasting
Per-option explanation
AIncorrect

Amazon SageMaker Autopilot

Amazon SageMaker Autopilot is an AutoML service that automatically builds models from data.

The point of requiring almost no code is shared. However, its use is centered on operations from the ML environment side; Canvas directly addresses the requirement of a GUI-only experience for business analysts, but the service that addresses this question's requirements is Amazon SageMaker Canvas, so it is incorrect.

BCorrect

Amazon SageMaker Canvas

This is correct. Amazon SageMaker Canvas is a no-code service that lets you build and run machine learning prediction models with only GUI operations, without writing code. It also supports time-series forecasting such as demand forecasting.

CIncorrect

Amazon SageMaker Studio

Amazon SageMaker Studio is an integrated development environment (IDE) for ML development.

It is confusing within the SageMaker family. However, it is an environment for developers who write code, while the service that addresses this question's requirements is Amazon SageMaker Canvas, so it is incorrect.

DIncorrect

Amazon SageMaker Data Wrangler

Amazon SageMaker Data Wrangler is a service that performs data preprocessing and transformation in a GUI.

The point of GUI operations is shared. However, its responsibility is preprocessing and it cannot go as far as building and running prediction models, while the service that addresses this question's requirements is Amazon SageMaker Canvas, so it is incorrect.

Key Takeaway

Remember the correct answer, 'Amazon SageMaker Canvas.'
- A no-code service that lets you build and run machine learning prediction models with only GUI operations, without writing code.
- In addition to classification and regression, it supports time-series forecasting such as demand forecasting, so business analysts can build predictions themselves (its time-series forecasting positions it as a successor to Amazon Forecast).
