Ray AI Runtime (AIR) Online Inference

Ray Serve: TL;Dr 1. Scalable 2. Low latency 3. Efficient First-class support for multi-model inference Python-native: mix business logic & machine learning Flexible, scalable, efficient compute for online inference

Working Example: Content understanding End-to-end inference service { “object”: “hummingbird”, “score”: 0.97, “segment_pixels”: [ (200, 403), … ], } Input Output

Requirements for online inference → Minimize latency, maximize throughput 🔥 → Fine-grained resources: fractional CPUs & GPUs ➗ → Programmatic API for development and testing 󰠁 → Rock-solid story for production 🧱

Basic solution: multi-model monolith Single container 17\ ❌ Unable to scale models independently! 🙁 High latency, low throughput, and costly HTTP

Complex Solution: Models as Containers 18 ✅ Scale models independently, use different resources ❌ Requires deep Kubernetes knowledge to build an app 🤷 HTTP HTTP

Ray Serve is built for multi-model inference Write a single Python program Use your favorite tools & libraries Scale across CPUs and GPUs

Ray Serve in 2.x + Production hardening, focused on Kubernetes → Goal: Make it easy to put scalable ML in production + Great UX for flexible model composition + Improved efficiency and save costs with advanced autoscaling 💸💸 💸

Outline ● Ray Serve Overview ● Highlights in Ray 2.x ○ Model Composition API ○ Autoscaling ○ Production Hardening ○ ○

Model composition requirements → Flexible to satisfy diverse use cases + Different models, frameworks, and business logic → Scalable and efficient when running in production → Ability to develop, test, and debug locally 💻 💸💸 💸

Solution: Model composition API → First-class API to build graphs of Serve deployments → Full flexibility of Ray Serve + Author, configure, scale each model independently → Orchestrate computation using regular Python code

Model composition: Pattern chaining

Model Composition Pattern: Ensemble

Model composition pattern: Dynamic selection

Ray Serve composition API → Write your models as ordinary classes → Flexibly compose models & logic w/ Python code → Run, test, and debug on your laptop → Deploy to production – configure and scale models independently

Outline ● Ray Serve Overview ● Highlights in Ray 2.x ○ Model Composition API ○ Autoscaling ○ Production Hardening

Autoscaling for ML models → Problem: ML models are compute intensive -> 💸💸💸 + Not all models are always used + Hard to tune hardware utilization + Needs to work for multi-model 32 → Solution: Advanced autoscaling for Serve 🧠 + Supports scale-to-zero + Uses request queue lengths, no profiling + Fully compatible with model composition API

Ray Serve autoscaling → Easy to get started + Just set a few basic parameters + No need to profile or update your models → Supports scale-to-zero and integrates fully with model composition

Production hardening → Online inference means solving operational problems: + Updates without downtime + Handling failures gracefully + Monitoring, observability, alerting
