A 4 TB S3 prefix of orchard drone frames is read sequentially. The algorithm does not need every object on local disk before the first epoch, and a full copy delays the job. Which SageMaker channel input mode fits?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Think of 4 TB of drone frames on S3, read sequentially, with no need for every object on local disk before epoch one. Use FastFile mode. File mode waits for the full copy and delays the job.
Full Explanation
FastFile mode streams a large sequential S3 prefix with file-like reads so training can start without waiting for a full local copy. File mode downloads the prefix first and delays the job. Input mode is a load-configuration choice, not a Domain 2 algorithm swap. Pipe is a streaming option, but FastFile is available and fits this access pattern.
