One of them can use a service endpoint. When using a service endpoint, the transform takes a PCollection of type `tf.train.Example` and, for each element, sends a request to Google Cloud AI Platform Prediction service. The transform produces a PCollection of type `PredictLog` which contains predictions. + +Before getting started, deploy a machine learning model to the cloud. The cloud service manages the infrastructure needed to handle prediction requests in both efficient and scalable way. Only Tensorflow models are supported. For more information, see [Exporting a SavedModel for prediction](https://cloud.google.com/ai-platform/prediction/docs/exporting-savedmodel-for-prediction). Review comment: If only TensorFlow models are supported, we should say "deploy a TensorFlow model to the cloud." Also, does the cloud service to which you deploy the model have to be AI Platform? If so, we should say "deploy a TensorFlow model to AI Platform." ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
