Lizard inference engineering: An inference provider owns the stack
-
Inference Engineering · Day 1 · Morning
An API endpoint is not an inference engine.
The engineering decisions that determine latency happen below the route: batching, KV-cache precision, quantized kernels, memory residency and device submission.
Lizard treats the local machine as the inference provider. lizard-native owns the Direct3D 12 path; Caterpillar owns its compiled execution plan. The OpenAI-compatible endpoint is only the top layer.
Which layer of your current inference stack can you actually inspect and change?
Engineering fact: Lizard owns the local endpoint, scheduler, cache layout, kernels, quantization choices, and device execution path.
