LLM inference and serving see KV cache, batching, and scaling innovations

Recent developments in LLM inference and serving include advancements in KV cache management and batching techniques. Papers explore optimizing remote KV tiers to reduce latency, efficient KV cache migration for geo-distributed systems, and strategies for KV cache residency in agentic workloads. Techniques like KVCompass aim to share prefix caches across regions, while TideKV and KV-Surgeon focus on memory-efficient long-context inference and offline KV cache compaction. Additionally, new batching strategies like Elastic MoE scaling and prompt sorting offer performance improvements for MoE models, and fleet planners like Koi optimize inference across heterogeneous multi-cloud environments.
