3 new signals we're tracking
1. Amazon SageMaker HyperPod uses a tiered KV cache with Curvine to improve LLM inference efficiency and reduce costs
inference-infrastructure - production - August 13, 2026
What changed? See the Benchmarking section for the full methodology and results. With this architecture, workloads that previously required P5 instances can run on lower-cost G6e instances, reducing per-endpoint cost.
