Transitioning generative AI from proof-of-concept to production is one of the most critical challenges organizations are facing today.
Moving generative AI from prototype to production requires more than just picking a model—it demands scalable, cost-effective, and resilient inference infrastructure. In this session, we will discuss the practical deployment paths across the Red Hat AI portfolio. Discover how technologies like Red Hat AI Inference, OpenShift AI, and high-throughput engines like vLLM enable enterprise-grade LLM serving across hybrid cloud environments.
The goal of this session is to help organizations start thinking about a clear strategy for where and how to host their Large Language Models (LLMs).
