Enterprises and individual developers frequently run multiple AI inference models. The right architecture can simplify how the models are called while also providing centralized governance. In this post, we'll look at two reference architectures focused on networking AI inference model serving: one for Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) and one all other backend types. First, we'll explore the commonalities between the reference architectures that you'll see later. Then we'll explore unique components of the architecture for GKE backends and finally, we'll go over the elements of the architecture for all backend types.

The entry point

You can expose your model deployment behind a stable, secure, and reliable entry point that acts as the front end for inference calls. This entry point also acts as a control zone where policy, security, and logic can be enforced. Both the Cloud Load balancer and the Inference Gateway provide entry point capability. These types of...
