In-House LLM Serving at Netflix
Netflix TechBlog · AI & Machine Learning
Serving Architecture OverviewDesign Decisions and ImplementationFour decisions shape this platform — engine, packaging, API surface, and rollout — presented in dependency order, since each one constrains the next.vLLM as the Paved-Path EngineThe platform was originally built on TensorRT-LLM, a performant inference engine at the time and already integrated with Triton — the compute backend in use within MSS.By summer 2025, two things had shifted: open-source engines had largely closed the performance gap with specialized stacks, and our workload mix had broadened to include embedding generation, prefill-only inference for ranking and retrieval, autoregressive decoding, and custom models with non-trivial per-step constraint logic The platform has to pin compatible versions when baking the service image, and prevent model authors from overriding the vLLM version at packaging time.Custom model logic We git-subtreed and patched the frontend to translate response_format into vLLM’s guided decoding parameters at request time.Deployment StrategiesWith API surface and engine in place, the question that remains is how new versions roll out without dropping requests
