A. 1. HTTP requests are sent by the sensors to your ML model, which is deployed as a microservice and exposes a REST API for prediction
2. Your application queries a Vertex AI endpoint where you deployed your model.
3. Responses are received by the caller application as soon as the model produces the prediction.

B. 1. Events are sent by the sensors to Pub/Sub, consumed in real time, and processed by a Dataflow stream processing pipeline.
2. The pipeline invokes the model for prediction and sends the predictions to another Pub/Sub topic.
3. Pub/Sub messages containing predictions are then consumed by a downstream system for monitoring.

C. 1. Export your data to Cloud Storage using Dataflow.
2. Submit a Vertex AI batch prediction job that uses your trained model in Cloud Storage to perform scoring on the preprocessed data.
3. Export the batch prediction job outputs from Cloud Storage and import them into Cloud SQL.

D. 1. Export the data to Cloud Storage using the BigQuery command-line tool
2. Submit a Vertex AI batch prediction job that uses your trained model in Cloud Storage to perform scoring on the preprocessed data.
3. Export the batch prediction job outputs from Cloud Storage and import them into BigQuery.
