GCP Professional Cloud Architect Practice Question
An enterprise data science team must automate a recurring workflow: ingest events with Dataflow, train a GPU-based model, evaluate it, and deploy a new Vertex AI endpoint only when accuracy improves. Regulations require automatic capture of lineage for every dataset, model, and metric, and auditors need a graphical UI to inspect past runs. The team also wants to rerun the workflow with different parameters and does not want to operate its own orchestration control-plane. Which Google Cloud service best satisfies these needs?
Connect each step with Pub/Sub topics and Eventarc-triggered Cloud Functions to progress through the workflow.
Chain Cloud Build triggers that invoke gcloud commands for Dataflow, custom training, and endpoint deployment.
Use Vertex AI Pipelines (managed Kubeflow Pipelines) to define and run the workflow, relying on its built-in ML Metadata tracking and console visualization.
Use Cloud Composer (managed Apache Airflow) to schedule Dataflow, training, and deployment tasks in a DAG.
Vertex AI Pipelines is a fully managed implementation of Kubeflow Pipelines that runs on Google-managed infrastructure, so the team does not have to create or maintain its own control plane. Each pipeline run is automatically logged in Vertex AI's ML Metadata store, giving built-in lineage, artifact versioning, and experiment tracking needed for compliance. The Cloud Console provides a graphical view of pipeline DAGs and run histories for auditors. Pipelines are parameterizable and support conditional logic, enabling re-runs with new data and conditional deployment. Cloud Composer or Cloud Build could orchestrate the steps, but they lack native ML metadata lineage and require the team to manage the orchestration environment. Event-driven Cloud Functions offer minimal lineage or visualization. Therefore, Vertex AI Pipelines is the most appropriate choice.
