Package the model prediction logic in Cloud Run, which is called by Dataflow. This approach leverages serverless computing for scalability but may introduce additional latency due to network calls.

Install the model to a Vertex AI endpoint, and invoke this endpoint in the Dataflow job. Vertex AI is optimized for low-latency predictions and offers managed services for ease of use.

Incorporate the model directly into the Dataflow job as a requirement, and utilize it for prediction. This method reduces external dependencies but may increase the complexity and processing time within the pipeline.

Install the model in a TFServing container on Google Kubernetes Engine, and invoke it in the Dataflow job. This option provides flexibility but requires additional management overhead and may not match Vertex AI's performance.

Combine options B and D by deploying the model to both Vertex AI and a TFServing container on GKE, then dynamically routing predictions based on current load to balance latency and cost.
