vLLM production-stack: LLM inference for Enterprises (part1) - Cloudthrill
vLLM Production Stack tackles usual issues that come with scaling LLM serving (slow recovery, High GPU bills) with a community-maintained layer that wraps vanilla vLLM, adds a Python-native router, LMCache-powered KV-cache network, autoscaling hooks and Grafana dashboards—all deployable in a single Helm chart. Let's dive into it!✍🏻
