ML Inference Cost Optimization

Cut serving costs without quality loss

Reducing ML inference cost involves choosing efficient hardware, batching, quantization/distillation where acceptable, caching results, and autoscaling on SLO-relevant metrics while monitoring latency/quality tradeoffs.

Tune Models

Quantize/distill when quality allows; cache common results.

Right Size

Pick efficient hardware; batch requests; set concurrency and autoscale.

Watch Tradeoffs

Monitor latency and quality metrics; rollback if regressions.
