Decision brief

text-generation-inference is a tool for serving large language models for text generation, supporting a wide range of hardware accelerators including Nvidia, AMD, Intel GPU, Gaudi, and Google TPU.

Good fit when

  • When you need to serve large language models for text generation with support for multiple hardware accelerators, including AMD GPUs with ROCm.
  • If you require compatibility with the Open AI Chat Completion API through TGI's Messages API.

Avoid when

  • If your deployment environment lacks the necessary hardware accelerators, as performance on CPUs is not optimized and may be subpar.
  • When you need a tool that does not require specific hardware configurations or Docker setup, as text-generation-inference is designed for environments with GPU support.
