The exponential growth of high-frequency real-time financial transactions necessitates scalable machine learning infrastructures capable of processing and forecasting data in real time. This paper proposes a comprehensive design and implementation strategy for such infrastructures using distributed computing frameworks like Apache Spark and cloud services such as Amazon Web Services (AWS). Emphasizing technical specifics, the paper delves into architectural designs, implementation strategies, and optimization techniques that address critical challenges in data ingestion, real-time processing, model training, and deployment. A proof-of-concept implementation demonstrates the feasibility of the proposed architecture on a small scale, highlighting its potential benefits. The findings suggest that implementing a scalable distributed machine learning infrastructure can enhance computational efficiency and significantly improve the accuracy and timeliness of financial forecasts. Future work will involve deploying the proposed architecture in large-scale industry settings to validate its effectiveness in real-world scenarios.
