Multi-LLM NIM Overview

Description:

The Multi-LLM NIM container is a NIM microservice designed for use with a broad range of LLMs. It includes a production-ready inference runtime with optimized inference engines from NVIDIA and the community— such as NVIDIA TensorRT-LLM, vLLM, and SGLang. When provided an LLM input at container runtime, stored in either Hugging Face or TensorRT-LLM formats, the NIM identifies the model’s format, architecture, and quantization, selects the inference backend, applies pre-configured settings for the LLM and backend, and starts serving the model for inference. For more information, see the NIM documentation and supported model architectures.

The container components are ready for commercial/non-commercial use.

Warning:

NVIDIA cannot guarantee the security of any models hosted on non-NVIDIA systems such as HuggingFace. Malicious or insecure models can result in serious security risks up to and including full remote code execution. We strongly recommend that before attempting to load it, you manually verify the safety of any model not provided by NVIDIA, through such mechanisms as a) ensuring that the model weights are serialized using the safetensors format, b) conducting a manual review of any model or inference code to ensure that it is free of obfuscated or malicious code, and c) validating the signature of the model, if available, to ensure that it comes from a trusted source and has not been modified.

License/Terms of Use:

The NIM container is governed by the NVIDIA Software License Agreement (found at https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/agreements/enterprise-software/nvidia-software-license-agreement/) and the Product-Specific Terms for NVIDIA AI Products (found at https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/agreements/enterprise-software/product-specific-terms-for-ai-products/).

You are responsible for ensuring that your use of NVIDIA AI Foundation Models complies with all applicable laws.
