Amazon SageMaker AI cuts generative AI inference scale-out time by up to half with automatic container image caching

Amazon SageMaker Inference now supports container image caching, enabling up to 2x faster end-to-end scaling for generative AI models during scale-out events. When your endpoint scales out, the service pre-caches your container image so new instances can start serving traffic faster, without waiting for large container images to be pulled from Amazon ECR. Generative AI workloads typically use large container images (10 GB or more) for deep learning frameworks and model serving. Previously, every new instance launched during scale-out had to pull the full image from ECR, adding several minutes
