Deploying Deep Learning: Quantization, Serving, and Edge AI

About this course

"Production Deep Learning: Inference, Quantization & Edge Deployment is designed for ML engineers and developers who want to master the full deployment lifecycle — from compressing and quantizing models to serving them at scale using vLLM, Triton, ONNX, and Llama.cpp. Module 1 covers model compression fundamentals, including pruning, distillation, and INT8/INT4 quantization using AWQ and GPTQ, with a focus on the accuracy–latency tradeoff. Module 2 dives into high-throughput serving architectures, exploring vLLM's PagedAttention, NVIDIA Triton, TensorRT, and scaling inference across GPU clusters with autoscaling patterns. Module 3 focuses on CPU and edge deployment using ONNX Runtime, GGUF, and Llama.cpp, plus multimodal inference with CLIP and LLaVA on resource-constrained devices. Module 4 is a capstone project where you'll quantize a fine-tuned LLM, build a production API with vLLM, benchmark performance, and containerize your model with Docker for cloud and edge deployment. By the end of this course, you will: - Apply INT4/INT8 quantization techniques (AWQ, GPTQ, GGUF) to compress LLMs for production - Deploy high-throughput inference servers using vLLM, Triton, and ONNX Runtime - Run optimized models on GPU, CPU, and edge devices using Llama.cpp and TensorRT - Build, benchmark, and containerize an end-to-end production-ready inference API" Disclaimer: This is an independent educational resource created by Board Infinity for informational and educational purposes only.
