Today, we are contributing llm-d to the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) as a Sandbox project.This isn't just a hand-off of code. It’s a commitment to making high-performance AI serving a core, portable capability of the cloud-native stack. When we launched llm-d in May 2025, we set out to solve the massive capabilities gap between AI experimentation and mission-critical production inference at scale. By moving llm-d into the CNCF, we’re expanding the target of a multi-vendor coalition—including CoreWeave, IBM, Google, and NVIDIA—to build the open standard for distributed infer

Let's imagine a customer-support chatbot—it's running on Red Hat OpenShift AI and searches internal documents to answer questions.
