Vertex AI

Vertex AI is Google Cloud's unified machine learning and generative AI development platform - providing the full ML lifecycle from data preparation through model training, deployment, and monitoring, plus access to Google's Gemini foundation models and a model garden of third-party models. AI capabilities include AutoML that trains custom ML models without writing model architecture code, access to Gemini and other Google foundation models via API for generative AI application development, Vertex AI Search and Conversation for building AI-powered search and RAG applications, model registry and serving infrastructure for deploying ML models at scale, MLOps tooling for pipeline orchestration and model monitoring in production, Vertex AI Workbench for notebook-based ML development, and Colab Enterprise for managed Jupyter environments.

Vertex AI is AI-native - a platform whose entire purpose is building, deploying, and operating AI and ML models is inherently AI-native infrastructure.
