Definition

Text Generation Inference (TGI) is a dedicated software framework designed to serve large language models (LLMs) with low latency and high throughput. It optimizes the inference process for text generation tasks by implementing features like continuous batching, tensor parallelism, and optimized kernels. This allows developers to deploy powerful generative models in production environments, ensuring responsive interactions for end-users while managing computational resources effectively.
