Custom Container deployment in vertex ai-CodePudding

I am trying to deploy my custom container in vertex ai endpoint for predictions. The contents of the application are as follows.

Flask - app.py

import pandas as pd
from flask import Flask, jsonify,request
import tensorflow
import pre_process
import post_process


app = Flask(__name__)


@app.route('/predict',methods=['POST'])
def predict():
    req = request.json.get('instances')
    
    input_data = req[0]['email']

    #preprocessing
    text = pre_process.preprocess(input_data)
    vector = pre_process.preprocess_tokenizing(text)

    model = tensorflow.keras.models.load_model('model')

    #predict
    prediction = model.predict(vector)

    #postprocessing
    value = post_process.postprocess(list(prediction[0])) 
    
    return jsonify({'output':{'doc_class':value}})


if __name__=='__main__':
    app.run(host='0.0.0.0')

I am following this blog vertex ai deployment for gcloud console commands to containerise and deploy the model to endpoint.But the model is taking forever to get deployed and ultimately fails to get deployed.

After running the container in local host, it runs as expected but it is not getting deployed into vertex ai endpoint. I don't understand whether the problem is in flask app.py or Dockerfile or whether the problem lies somewhere else.

CodePudding user response：

I was able to resolve this issue by adding health route to http server. I added the following piece of code in my flask app.

@app.route('/healthz')
def healthz():
    return "OK"
