Hugging Face Integrates vLLM for Faster Transformer Inference
Hugging Face has added a native-speed vLLM backend to its Transformers library, enabling up to 24x faster inference on supported models. The integration supports models like Llama and Mistral, and is available now in the latest release. This move aims to streamline deployment for developers using Hugging Face's ecosystem.
