AI inference

AI Inference

The model processes the prompt during prefill, then generates output tokens during decoding. Available compute, model size, context length and concurrency influence performance.

Original realistic concept imagery with animated connections. Illustrative engineering architecture. Moving signals show conceptual flow, not live traffic or deployed integrations. Hardware provisioning, model deployment and user inference happen on different timescales.

Intelligence at the edge

A prompt becomes a response through application routing and model execution.
