LMCache:
About
LMCache is an open source Knowledge Delivery Network (KDN) designed as a caching layer for large language model serving that accelerates inference by reusing KV (key-value) caches across repeated or overlapping computations. It enables fast prompt caching, allowing LLMs to “prefill” recurring text only once and then reuse those stored KV caches, even in non-prefix positions, across multiple serving instances. This approach reduces time to first token, saves GPU cycles, and increases throughput in scenarios such as multi-round question answering or retrieval augmented generation. LMCache supports KV cache offloading (moving cache from GPU to CPU or disk), cache sharing across instances, and disaggregated prefill, which separates the prefill and decoding phases for resource efficiency. It is compatible with inference engines like vLLM and TGI and supports compressed storage, blending techniques to merge caches, and multiple backend storage options.

vLLM:
About
vLLM is a high-performance library designed to facilitate efficient inference and serving of Large Language Models (LLMs). Originally developed in the Sky Computing Lab at UC Berkeley, vLLM has evolved into a community-driven project with contributions from both academia and industry. It offers state-of-the-art serving throughput by efficiently managing attention key and value memory through its PagedAttention mechanism. It supports continuous batching of incoming requests and utilizes optimized CUDA kernels, including integration with FlashAttention and FlashInfer, to enhance model execution speed. Additionally, vLLM provides quantization support for GPTQ, AWQ, INT4, INT8, and FP8, as well as speculative decoding capabilities. Users benefit from seamless integration with popular Hugging Face models, support for various decoding algorithms such as parallel sampling and beam search, and compatibility with NVIDIA GPUs, AMD CPUs and GPUs, Intel CPUs, and more.
