SELF-HOSTED LLM INFERENCE & SERVING

Self-hosted LLM inference and serving, built on vLLM

We deploy and tune vLLM to serve open models fast on your own GPUs — an OpenAI-compatible, self-hosted LLM API that handles real production traffic, with no per-token cloud fees and no data leaving your infrastructure. We design, deploy, tune and scale the whole stack.
10×

Higher throughput than naive serving — continuous batching and PagedAttention keep your GPUs busy.

Zero

Per-token API fees. Serve unlimited requests on GPUs you own or rent.

Drop-in

OpenAI-compatible API — point existing apps at your own endpoint with a URL change.

What self-hosted vLLM serving gives you

Move from a desktop model or a metered cloud API to production-grade inference you own. What vLLM unlocks:

High-throughput serving

Continuous batching and PagedAttention serve many concurrent users on the same GPU.

OpenAI-compatible API

A drop-in /v1 endpoint, so apps built for OpenAI switch over with a URL and key change.

Your data stays in

Prompts and outputs never leave your infrastructure — deploy in your own VPC or on-prem.

Predictable cost

Replace per-token bills with fixed GPU cost — the more you use it, the more you save.

Any open model

Serve Llama, Qwen, DeepSeek, Mistral and more, with quantization to fit your GPUs.

Scale on Kubernetes

Autoscaling, health checks and rolling model updates for real production traffic.

Why hosted LLM APIs fall short at scale

A hosted API is easy to start with, but at production volume the per-token bill compounds every month, your prompts and outputs leave your network, and you inherit the vendor’s rate limits, model choices and latency. For steady, high-volume workloads — or anything confidential — you want to own the inference layer, not rent it.

The fix: self-host inference with vLLM. You serve open models on your own GPUs behind an OpenAI-compatible API, keep every request inside your network, and trade a per-token meter for fixed, predictable capacity you control.

How we deploy vLLM in your environment

We provision GPUs in your cloud or on-prem and deploy vLLM with the right open model and quantization (AWQ, GPTQ or FP8) so it fits your hardware and hits your latency targets. vLLM’s continuous batching and PagedAttention keep the GPUs saturated, and we expose an OpenAI-compatible /v1 endpoint behind authentication so your apps connect with a URL change.

From there we tune batching, context length, tensor and pipeline parallelism and throughput for your traffic, add observability, rate limiting and autoscaling on Kubernetes, and hand over a documented, self-hosted vLLM inference stack your team can operate — with no per-token meter and no prompts or data leaving your infrastructure.

Why teams choose vLLM for production inference

vLLM is the engine most teams reach for when a local model needs to serve real production traffic. Its two signature techniques — continuous batching and PagedAttention memory management — let a single GPU serve many concurrent requests at high throughput, which is exactly what a desktop tool like Ollama isn’t built for. If you’re moving from a prototype to an app that thousands of users or agents will hit, vLLM is the step up.

vLLM serves an OpenAI-compatible API, so anything already written against OpenAI points at your endpoint with a URL and key change. It runs the open models you already use — Llama, Qwen, DeepSeek and Mistral — with quantization (AWQ, GPTQ, FP8) to fit your GPUs, and scales across multiple GPUs and nodes with tensor and pipeline parallelism. Everything runs inside your own VPC or on-prem, so prompts and outputs never leave your network.

What vLLM gives you, and where we help:

  • High-throughput serving — continuous batching and PagedAttention serve many concurrent users per GPU.
  • OpenAI-compatible API — a drop-in /v1 endpoint so existing apps switch to your self-hosted vLLM with a URL change.
  • Scales with your traffic — multi-GPU and multi-node serving with autoscaling on Kubernetes.
  • Cost-efficient — quantized models and high GPU utilization replace per-token cloud bills with fixed capacity.
  • Private by design — inference stays in your infrastructure; we add authentication, observability and rate limiting.

NeuralChainAI deploys and tunes vLLM, sizes the GPUs and quantization for your workload, wires the API into your apps, and hands you a documented, production-ready vLLM stack your team can run.

What we build with vLLM

OpenAI-compatible self-hosted API

A drop-in /v1 endpoint on your own infrastructure so apps built for OpenAI keep working, privately. Part of our self-hosted AI stack.

High-throughput model serving

Continuous batching and PagedAttention to serve many concurrent users per GPU. See our private & on-premise AI approach.

Migrate off metered cloud APIs

We move workloads from per-token cloud APIs to self-hosted inference, cutting cost and keeping data in-house. Explore private & on-premise AI.

Quantization, tuning & autoscaling

We quantize models to fit your GPUs, tune throughput and latency, and set up autoscaling for spiky traffic. Choosing an engine? Our guides compare vLLM vs SGLang vs TensorRT-LLM and cover deploying Llama, DeepSeek and Qwen in production.

Frequently asked questions

vLLM is a high-performance inference engine for serving open large language models. It uses continuous batching and PagedAttention to serve many concurrent requests quickly on your own GPUs, and exposes an OpenAI-compatible API your applications can call.
Yes. We deploy vLLM inside your own cloud VPC or on-prem, so prompts and outputs never leave your infrastructure. You control authentication, logging and retention end to end.
Open-weight models such as Llama, Qwen, DeepSeek and Mistral, in the sizes and quantization that fit your GPUs. You can serve multiple models and update them without changing your API.
It replaces per-token API bills with fixed GPU cost, and its batching keeps GPUs highly utilized so you serve far more traffic per dollar. The higher your volume, the bigger the saving versus a metered cloud API.
Yes. vLLM serves an OpenAI-compatible /v1 endpoint, so most apps and libraries that already call OpenAI can point at your self-hosted endpoint with a URL and key change.
Yes — vLLM is built for production. It is widely used to serve open models at scale, and we deploy it with autoscaling, health checks, observability and rate limiting on Kubernetes so it handles real traffic reliably, with rolling model updates and no downtime.
Far more than a naive setup. Continuous batching and PagedAttention keep the GPU busy across many simultaneous requests, so a single GPU can serve high concurrent load, and you scale further across multiple GPUs and nodes. We size and tune the deployment to your target latency and requests per second.
Ollama is ideal for getting a private LLM running quickly for a team or internal use. vLLM is the better engine when you need high-throughput, concurrent serving for a production application. We build both and will recommend the right fit.
