Scaling Generative AI Inference at Trillion-Token Scale
summary
Claims handling hundreds of billions of tokens per day, a proprietary FP8 quantization that preserves quality while speeding execution, and a homegrown continuous fetching algorithm for late-arriving and early-finished requests. Platform components include Friendli Suite with container images and managed dedicated endpoints, one-click deploy from Hugging Face, autoscaling and replica routing. Notes agentic AI drives up to 10x API call growth, explains batching vs. caching trade-offs, and emphasizes GPU-cost reduction through kernel optimizations and cache-aware batching.
