New course: Efficient Inference with SGLang: Text and Image Generation, built in partnership with LMSys @lmsysorg and RadixArk @radixark, and taught by Richard Chen @richardczl, a Member of Technical Staff at RadixArk. Running LLMs in production is expensive, and much of that cost comes from redundant computation. This short course teaches you to eliminate that waste using SGLang, an open-source inference framework that caches computation already done and reuses it across future requests. When ten users share the same system prompt, SGLang processes it once, not ten times. The speedups compound quickly, especially when there's a lot of shared context across requests. Skills you'll gain: – Implement a KV cache from scratch to eliminate redundant computation within a single request – Scale caching across users and requests with RadixAttention, so shared context is only processed once – Accelerate image generation with diffusion models using SGLang's caching and multi-GPU parallelism Join and learn to make LLM inference faster and more cost-efficient at scale! deeplearning.ai/short-course…
