Enabling the Artifact Registry API
We’re going to create Docker images in order to run our custom code in conjunction with the Google Cloud Vertex AI Vizier service. The Google Cloud Artifact Registry is a fully managed artifact repository that we can use for storing our container images. It can be seen as the next generation of the Google Cloud Container Registry (GCR) that can be used to store artifacts such as Java JAR files, Node.js modules, Python wheels, Go modules, Maven artifacts, and npm packages (in addition to Docker images, which were already supported in GCR).
To enable the Artifact Registry API, perform the following steps:
- In the Google Cloud console, navigate to Google Cloud services menu → APIs & Services → Library
