Kubernetes and Auto-Scaling for LLMs
Deploy LLMs on Kubernetes with GPU scheduling, HPA and KEDA for autoscaling, MIG partitioning on A100/H100, and Karpenter for on-demand GPU node provisioning.

Load balancing strategies for LLM serving - prefix-aware routing for KV cache reuse, least-connections for variable-cost requests, model routing, circuit breakers, and building a production gateway.
Managing model versions in production LLM serving - semantic versioning for models, canary deployments, A/B testing, shadow mode evaluation, rollback procedures, and blue-green model deployments.
vLLM, Text Generation Inference, multi-adapter serving, autoscaling, and cost analysis - deploying open source models at production scale.
Production observability for LLM serving systems - GPU metrics, TTFT, inter-token latency, vLLM Prometheus integration, distributed tracing, alerting, and Grafana dashboards.
Serving multiple LLMs from shared infrastructure - model routing, MIG partitioning, dynamic loading, LiteLLM proxy, cost optimization through bin-packing, and autoscaling per model in production.
Controlling costs and preventing abuse in LLM API serving - token-based rate limiting, Redis token buckets, tenant isolation, cost attribution, budget alerts, and abuse detection.
Compare HuggingFace TGI, Ollama, LiteLLM, Triton Inference Server, and llama.cpp for LLM deployment - feature analysis, performance benchmarks, and when to use each framework.
Deploy open LLMs at production scale using vLLM - PagedAttention, continuous batching, tensor parallelism, and OpenAI-compatible serving for LLaMA 3 70B and beyond.
