The gap between AI enthusiasm and AI in production is where most enterprise initiatives stall. In this keynote, Red Hat's leadership, customers, and partners show a different path, grounded in real AI journeys from frontier models to open source optimization, and proven in production at some of the world's most demanding enterprises. Hear how Red Hat's unified platform — spanning infrastructure, sovereignty, and intelligence — gives organizations the foundation to move fast with AI without betting on the wrong technology, the wrong vendor, or the wrong moment. The future isn't one cloud or one model. It’s the right platform.

Welcome to vLLM office hours! These bi-weekly sessions are your chance to stay current with the vLLM ecosystem, ask questions, and hear directly from contributors and power users.
This weeks special topics: vLLM Semantic Router: Intelligent Routing for Safer, Faster, Multi-Model Inference, plus a first look at the new vLLM course on DeepLearning.AI.
We cover the latest vLLM project updates, including the v0.23 release (DeepSeek V4 hardening with TRT-LLM-gen attention kernels and EPLB for MoE, Model Runner V2 expanding to more models, FlashInfer sampler integration, unified Gemma 4 multimodal support with native MTP, new model support for Step 3.7 Flash, Cosmos 3 Reasoner, Granite Speech Plus, and JetBrains Mellum, pipeline parallelism optimizations, AMD RDNA3 quantization kernels, multi-tier KV cache offloading to disk and remote storage, ongoing Rust frontend work, a unified reasoning/tool-call parser interface, and async EPLB by default), plus community highlights on Minimax M3, Poolside Laguna M.1, GLM-5.2, and Prime Intellects RL at 1T Scale blog.
We also share a first look at the new, free vLLM course on Andrew Ngs DeepLearning.AI platform, with developer advocate Cedric Clyburn.
Then we dive into vLLM Semantic Router with Christopher Nuland, Chief AI Architect at Red Hat AI: how signal-driven routing works across cost, latency, privacy, safety, and modality; using confidence scores and anchor tuning to improve routing accuracy; combining semantic routing with PII redaction and guardrails to protect sensitive data; pairing it with llm-d for prefix-aware caching; its new upstream integration into Agent Gateway; and a live home-lab demo.

Welcome to vLLM office hours! These bi-weekly sessions are your chance to stay current with the vLLM ecosystem, ask questions, and hear directly from contributors and power users.
This weeks special topic: Mooncake + vLLM/llm-d Deep Dive.
vLLM project update from core maintainer Michael Goin, covering the v0.26 release plus recent model support, performance work, and quantization updates.
Hackathon spotlight: Timothy and David present TickyTalky, a winning project from the Austin Red Hat and NVIDIA vLLM hackathon, built on DeepSeek V4 Flash running on a DGX Spark.
Then the main event, with Ke Yang and Christian Angelo Velarde (Approaching.AI) and Greg Pereira (Red Hat AI). Mooncake began as the inference architecture behind Kimi and has grown into communication and storage infrastructure for large-scale LLM serving. We cover how it integrates with vLLM for PD disaggregation and cluster-wide KV cache reuse, and how llm-d wraps these pieces for distributed serving on Kubernetes.
