Feature data can be read for inference using the methods in the following table.
Method | Description | |
---|---|---|
Using the HTTP API | This is the most common method used to read online feature data for inference. The HTTP API provides reads at low latency for single vector lookups. | Docs Reference |
Using the Python SDK (Method 1) | Use to read batch feature data for offline inference. | Docs Reference |
Using the Python SDK (Method 2) | Use to read online feature data to test inferences. This method is not suitable for production use. | Docs Reference |
