GCP Professional Cloud Architect Practice Question
A global electronics manufacturer uses high-speed cameras on an on-prem conveyor to capture circuit-board images. They must detect micro-solder defects in near real time, even when the factory WAN link to Google Cloud is occasionally down. The quality team wants a managed Google Cloud service that 1) requires little ML expertise, 2) supports active learning to improve accuracy over time, and 3) can deploy models to an edge appliance for offline inference that later syncs inspection results to BigQuery. Which approach best meets these needs?
Use AutoML Vision Object Detection, export the model to TensorFlow Lite, and run inference on an Edge TPU device that later publishes results to BigQuery.
Train a custom TensorFlow model in Vertex AI and deploy it on an Anthos bare-metal cluster in the factory.
Send each image to the Cloud Vision API over REST and write the responses to Cloud Storage and BigQuery when the link is available.
Create a Visual Inspection AI project, train in the cloud, and deploy the model to a Visual Inspection Edge Appliance that syncs results to BigQuery.
Visual Inspection AI is a turnkey computer-vision quality-control service. After a cloud-based training cycle that relies mainly on uploading labeled images, it can recommend retraining through active-learning feedback. The same model can be exported to a dedicated Visual Inspection Edge Appliance that runs inference locally without a constant network connection; results are cached and forwarded to BigQuery when connectivity returns. Building a custom Vertex AI or AutoML Vision solution would satisfy some requirements but would demand more ML expertise and manual edge integration work. Off-loading all inference to the Cloud Vision API fails the offline requirement. Therefore, creating a Visual Inspection AI project and deploying the model to a Visual Inspection Edge Appliance is the best fit.
