Amazon SageMaker Inference has introduced support for GPU partitioning utilizing NVIDIA Multi-Instance GPU technology. The capability functions by dividing an individual GPU into hardware-isolated partitions. As a result of this isolation, users can run a distinct model in each separate partition or take advantage of a right-sized fraction of a newer accelerator.
The deployment workflow utilizes two optional API fields configured to place one model per partition. In addition to outlining the endpoint configuration, the release details comparative evaluations against legacy hardware. Specifically, the metrics demonstrate how performance on partitioned hardware compares against a whole older GPU.
