What it does

Key features

  • Truss framework: APAC Python model packaging for any ML framework deployment
  • Managed GPU: APAC A10G/A100/H100 infrastructure without self-management
  • Auto-scaling: APAC scale-to-zero and traffic-responsive GPU allocation
  • Performance: APAC TensorRT and continuous batching optimization included
  • HuggingFace: APAC one-click deployment from HuggingFace model hub
  • Secrets: APAC API key and credential management for deployed models
When to reach for it

Best for

  • APAC engineering teams that have trained or fine-tuned custom ML models and need managed production inference without building serving infrastructure — particularly APAC startups and SMEs deploying specialized models (fine-tuned LLMs, custom vision models) that need consistent performance at variable traffic volumes.
Don't get burned

Limitations to know

  • ! APAC data residency: primarily US infrastructure — review for APAC data sovereignty requirements
  • ! APAC cold start latency on scale-to-zero deployments may be too slow for real-time UX
  • ! APAC custom TensorRT optimization requires engineering intervention beyond platform defaults
Context

About Baseten

Baseten is a ML model inference deployment platform providing APAC engineering teams with managed GPU infrastructure for deploying PyTorch, HuggingFace, and custom ML models as production-grade inference APIs — abstracting GPU provisioning, auto-scaling, and serving optimization behind a simple Python deployment API. APAC startups and enterprises that have trained or fine-tuned ML models and need to serve them in production without building inference infrastructure use Baseten as their deployment platform.

Baseten's Truss framework packages APAC ML models for deployment — a Python class wrapping model loading and inference logic deploys to Baseten's GPU infrastructure with one command. APAC teams using any ML framework (PyTorch, TensorFlow, ONNX, TensorRT) deploy models through the same Truss abstraction, enabling consistent deployment regardless of model training framework.

Baseten's auto-scaling adjusts GPU allocations to APAC inference traffic — scaling up during peak usage and scaling down to zero when idle, charging only for active compute time. APAC applications with variable traffic (e-commerce peak periods, batch processing jobs, business-hours API loads) use Baseten's auto-scaling to avoid paying for idle GPU time while maintaining capacity for demand spikes.

Baseten's performance optimization stack applies TensorRT, continuous batching, and GPU memory management to APAC deployed models — automatically improving throughput and latency beyond naive PyTorch serving. APAC teams deploying LLM fine-tunes, multimodal models, or specialized vision models use Baseten's optimization to achieve production-grade latency targets without implementing serving optimization themselves.
