Comment on AWS AI Stack – Ready-to-Deploy Serverless AI App on AWS and Bedrockparent

Comments

The major clouds don't support serverless GPU because the architecture is fundamentally different from running CPU workloads. For Lambda specifically, there's no way of running multiple customer workloads on a single GPU with Firecracker.

A more general issue is that the workloads that tend to run on GPU are much bigger than a standard Lambda-sized workload (think a 20Gi image with a smorgasbord of ML libraries). I've spent time working around this problem and wrote a bit about it here: https://www.beam.cloud/blog/serverless-platform-guide

You can do this with SR-IOV enabled hardware.
