infernexAI Inference Acceleration SuiteInferNex is an end-to-end integrated deployment solution for AI inference in cloud-native scenarios. Through Helm Chart, it seamlessly integrates core components including open-source gateway, intelligent routing, high-performance inference backend, KVCache index management, scaling decision framework, and inference observability system, providing a complete acceleration chain from request admission, dynamic routing, inference execution to resource management and monitoring. It aims to improve inference throughput and reduce inference latency, achieving a one-stop efficient AI service deployment and usage experience.sig-ai-inference
eagle-eyeAI Inference ObservabilityEagle Eye is an observability system for AI inference scenarios, implementing full-link metric collection, near-real-time transmission, and intelligent diagnosis from AI gateway, inference engine, Mooncake to infrastructure (Ray, K8s, hardware).
