This "Llama Stack in Production" presentation outlines a solution for easily building and deploying applications with Llama models, addressing challenges faced by both developers and API/service providers. The goal is to simplify tasks like inference, fine-tuning, and evaluation, and to provide production-ready agentic workflows. Llama Stack uses APIs and a plugin architecture to offer a standardized interface and toolchain components, enabling flexible deployments across various environments including on-premise, cloud, and on-device.

Every Thursday at 12 PM ET, we spotlight emerging tools, frameworks, and best practices that are shaping open-source AI ecosystems. Whether you're contributing code, deploying models, or just exploring, you’ll find practical insights and community connection.
