Reported impact
Business outcome
Baseten now serves five times as many requests on the same number of GPUs, improved price-performance for frontier reasoning models by up to 225 percent, reduced latency by up to 38 percent for large LLMs, can provision thousands of GPUs in under five minutes, and boosted throughput by over 60 percent for Writer’s Palmyra models.

Solution
Baseten built its inference platform around a unified global GPU pool and then upgraded the serving layer with NVIDIA Blackwell hardware and NVIDIA’s open inference stack. The company aggregates GPUs from more than 10 cloud providers across dozens of regions, uses its multi-cloud capacity management layer to provision thousands of GPUs in under five minutes, and abstracts away regional latency differences for customers. On Google Cloud A4 VMs and NVIDIA HGX B200 systems, Baseten combines NVIDIA CUDA, NVIDIA Dynamo, and NVIDIA TensorRT-LLM with open-source engines such as SGLang to run frontier reasoning models like DeepSeek-R1, Llama 4, and gpt-oss. That architecture supports disaggregated serving, LLM-aware routing, KV-cache offload, and custom model compilation, so Baseten can serve public model APIs and dedicated customer deployments with much higher throughput and lower latency than its previous generation.
Data flow
Customer traffic hits Baseten’s global GPU pool, the inference stack routes requests to Blackwell-backed endpoints, Dynamo applies distributed serving and cache optimizations, TensorRT-LLM and SGLang execute the selected model efficiently, and the platform returns lower-latency results from public or dedicated deployments.
