Managing GPU resources for AI workloads, particularly generative media and LLM inference, presents significant challenges due to their high memory and compute demands. Unlike traditional web applications, these tasks can easily exhaust GPU VRAM, leading to unrecoverable errors and job failures. To mitigate this, asynchronous architectural patterns utilizing job queues and message brokers like BullMQ and Redis are essential for decoupling task ingestion from execution. Efficient memory management, such as PagedAttention, and offloading KV Cache to external storage are crucial for reducing GPU idle time and fragmentation, thereby improving inference throughput and reducing latency.
