FAQPage Schema

How do I serve LLMs with high throughput in production?▼

High-throughput LLM serving is achieved using PagedAttention and continuous batching to maintain low latency under heavy load. This provides a production-grade API to serve multiple clients efficiently within a shared GPU environment.

What's the best way to deploy an OpenAI-compatible API for LLM inference?▼

Deploying an OpenAI-compatible endpoint for LLM inference allows seamless integration with existing clients. This serving framework provides straightforward deployment, scalable throughput, and continuous batching for production-grade API compatibility.

How do I run large models in a memory-constrained GPU environment?▼

To run large models in a memory-constrained GPU environment, apply quantization options like AWQ, GPTQ, or FP8 alongside tensor parallelism. These configurations reduce memory pressure while maintaining low latency during inference.

Can I use PagedAttention and continuous batching to reduce LLM serving latency?▼

PagedAttention and continuous batching are specifically designed to reduce LLM serving latency and increase throughput. They manage memory efficiently during inference, enabling production-grade performance under heavy concurrent client loads.

Does vLLM support quantization methods like AWQ, GPTQ, and FP8?▼

vLLM supports multiple quantization options including AWQ, GPTQ, and FP8. These methods enable memory-constrained deployments by reducing the GPU footprint of large language models while preserving low latency serving capabilities.
