How is batch prediction different from real - time prediction in ? Batch prediction is used for generating predictions for a single observation while real - time prediction is used for multiple observations Batch prediction requires an internet connection for generating predictions , while real - time prediction can be performed offline Batch prediction involves generating predictions for a set of observations offline , while real - time prediction generates predictions in real - time Batch prediction is suitable for generating predictions for a small subset of observations , while real- time prediction is suitable for a large number of observations
