Vertex AI Platform is a unified platform for building and deploying ML models on Google Cloud. It supports both custom and AutoML models, and provides various tools and services for ML development, such as Vertex Pipelines, Vertex Vizier, Vertex Explainable AI, and Vertex Feature Store. Vertex AI Platform allows users to train their TensorFlow models using distributed training, which can speed up the training process and handle large datasets. Vertex AI Platform also minimizes code refactoring and infrastructure overhead, as it is compatible with TensorFlow Estimators and handles the provisioning, configuration, and scaling of the training resources automatically. The other options are not as suitable for this scenario. Dataproc is a service that allows users to create and run data processing pipelines using Apache Spark and Hadoop, but it is not designed for TensorFlow model training. Managed Instance Groups are a feature that allows users to create and manage groups of identical compute instances, but they require more configuration and management than Vertex AI Platform. Kubeflow Pipelines are a tool that allows users to create and run ML workflows on Google Kubernetes Engine, but they involve more complexity and code changes than Vertex AI Platform.
