Steps

  1. Define lightweight components with @dsl.component and assemble them in a function decorated with @dsl.pipeline
  2. Add conditional execution with dsl.Condition around one or more components based on an upstream output
  3. Add repeated execution over a list of inputs with dsl.ParallelFor, optionally limiting concurrency
  4. Compile the pipeline with kfp.compiler.Compiler().compile(pipeline_func, package_path='pipeline.yaml')
  5. Submit the compiled template with aiplatform.PipelineJob(template_path=..., pipeline_root=<gcs-path>, parameter_values={...}) and call .run()
