Techtalk: Accelerating your Generative AI Journey with EKS and Serverless on AWS


Join us to explore the building blocks and patterns for accelerating your generative AI journey using Kubernetes, AWS Serverless Compute, and AWS Integration Services. Kubernetes offers powerful orchestration for scaling generative AI workloads across cloud and on-premises environments, while Serverless Compute enables the deployment and scaling of these applications with minimal operational overhead. We'll dive into emerging generative AI use cases, event-driven architectures, and integration workflows to help you build fault-tolerant, cost-effective, and efficient generative AI applications

12:00 PM - 1:00 PM

Tech Talk + Demo: Serverless and Workflow Patterns for Generative AI


Join us to learn about serverless patterns that are helping developers build Gen AI solutions quickly and effectively on AWS at scale. This session will include a live demo and give you a peek into variety of architectural pattern options for developing and utilizing Generative AI use cases such as retrieval augmented generation, summarization, content generation, and intelligent chatbots.

01:00 PM - 2:00 PM

Interactive Demo: Unleashing Peak ML Performance on Amazon EKS with Ray Serve & vLLM!


In this session, you'll learn how to achieve scalability and performance in ML inference by harnessing the distributed power of Ray Serve and the efficient memory management of vLLM. We'll show you how to handle complex workloads with ease, ensuring fast, cost-effective deployments that scale effortlessly across your EKS cluster, powered by Karpenter and Amazon EC2 accelerated instances. Whether optimizing for latency or throughput, discover how this powerful combination can accelerate your AI-driven applications, delivering robust, cost-effective, and responsive LLM inference at any scale.
