#!/usr/bin/env python3 # -*- coding: utf-8 -*- """ GPU Infrastructure Recommender for AI Models =========================================== A comprehensive tool for estimating VRAM requirements and recommending optimal GPU configurations for Large Language Model (LLM) deployment and training. Author: Rudali Huidrom Version: 4.0.0 First Written On: 08 December 2025 Last Updated: 18 December 2025 Overview -------- This module provides a Gradio-based web interface that: 1. Calculates precise VRAM requirements for LLMs based on model specifications 2. Estimates throughput and time-to-completion for various GPU configurations 3. Recommends cost-effective hardware solutions for both inference and training 4. Supports multiple quantization methods, fine-tuning strategies, and frameworks Key Features ----------- - Automatic model resolution from HuggingFace Hub - Support for inference (single/batched) and training (Full FT, LoRA, QLoRA) - Empirical throughput benchmarks for major GPU families - Multi-GPU configuration support with communication overhead modeling - Framework-specific optimizations (vLLM, HuggingFace, TensorRT) - Real-time cost estimation with multiple pricing tiers - Throughput scaling with sequence length - CSV export with detailed analysis and formulas - Responsive UI with dark mode support Technical Approach ----------------- The recommender uses empirically-validated formulas derived from: - MLPerf benchmarks and vendor specifications - Production deployment data from real-world LLM serving - Memory profiling of training workloads - Community-contributed performance metrics Accuracy: ±15-20% variance expected due to architecture-specific optimizations, framework versions, and runtime conditions. Dependencies ----------- Required: - gradio>=3.0.0: Web interface framework - python>=3.8: Core language support Optional: - transformers>=4.30.0: Automatic model config resolution - huggingface_hub>=0.16.0: HuggingFace API access for gated models Usage ----- python app.py Environment Variables: HF_TOKEN: HuggingFace API token for accessing gated models License ------- Copyright (c) 2025.
