<p>TensorRT LLM provides a high-level Python <a class="reference internal" href="quick-start-guide.html#run-offline-inference-with-llm-api"><span class="std std-ref">LLM API</span></a> that supports a wide range of inference setups - from single-GPU to multi-GPU or multi-node deployments. It includes built-in support for various parallelism strategies and advanced features. The LLM API integrates seamlessly with the broader inference ecosystem, including NVIDIA <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/ai-dynamo/dynamo">Dynamo</a> and the <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/triton-inference-server/server">Triton Inference Server</a>.</p>
<p>TensorRT LLM is designed to be modular and easy to modify. Its PyTorch-native architecture allows developers to experiment with the runtime or extend functionality. Several popular models are also pre-defined and can be customized using <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/NVIDIA/TensorRT-LLM/tree/3111682/tensorrt_llm/_torch/models/modeling_deepseekv3.py">native PyTorch code</a>, making it easy to adapt the system to specific needs.</p>
