BigQuery ML is a service that allows you to create and train ML models using SQL queries. You can use BigQuery ML to train an AutoML regression model, which is a type of model that automatically selects the best features and architecture for your data. You can also specify Vertex AI as the model registry, which is a service that allows you to store and manage your ML models. By using Vertex AI as the model registry, you can easily deploy your model to a Vertex AI endpoint, which is a service that allows you to serve your ML models online and scale them automatically. By using BigQuery ML, Vertex AI model registry, and Vertex AI endpoint, you can deploy your model for online prediction as quickly as possible, without having to export, import, or retrain your model.
