Luminal is developing a cloud offering designed to provide a simple, fast, and straightforward experience for machine learning inference [00:23:36]. This platform leverages Luminal’s ability to represent models as graphs [00:23:11].
How it Works
Users can export their model graphs from Luminal into a file [00:23:14]. This file can then be uploaded to the Luminal cloud to obtain a serverless inference endpoint [00:23:18].
The Luminal cloud handles various complexities:
- Optimization [00:23:24]
- Batching and queuing [00:23:25]
- Provisioning machines [00:23:28] (related to GPU and server configurations for AI)
Serverless Benefits
The platform is entirely serverless [00:23:30], meaning users only pay for the time their graph is actively executing [00:23:32]. This approach aims to deliver a highly efficient and cost-effective solution for full stack AI engineering in serverless environments related to inference [00:23:34].
Goal
Luminal’s objective is to build the “simplest, fastest ML cloud in the world” [00:24:18]. This simplicity allows for faster innovation compared to more complex frameworks [00:24:03].
