## [Introduction] Server-Inspector: An All-Round Hardware Detection and Capacity Evaluation Tool for LLM Inference Servers

Server-Inspector is a general-purpose hardware detection and capacity evaluation tool designed specifically for LLM inference scenarios. It supports in-depth hardware profiling analysis and performance evaluation in multi-accelerator environments, and helps solve key hardware capacity evaluation problems in deployment decisions through a profile-driven approach.

## [Background] Hardware Evaluation Requirements in LLM Inference Deployment

With the increasing popularity of Large Language Model (LLM) inference services today, accurately evaluating the hardware capacity and inference capability of servers has become a core challenge in deployment decisions. Currently, there is a lack of dedicated hardware evaluation tools for LLM inference scenarios.

## [Core Features] Multi-Accelerator Detection and Profile-Driven Evaluation Framework

### 1. Multi-Accelerator Hardware Detection
Automatically identifies various AI accelerators such as NVIDIA GPU, AMD GPU, Intel Gaudi, and extracts key information like memory capacity, number of computing units, and bandwidth specifications
### 2. Profile-Driven Evaluation Framework
Users can define evaluation profiles to simulate specific model loads, and quantify the server's inference throughput and latency performance through standardized tests
### 3. Capacity Prediction and Planning
Generates capacity reports, providing recommendations for the number of concurrent requests, maximum loadable model size, and optimal configuration under latency constraints

## [Technical Implementation] Hardware Information Collection and Performance Indicator Calculation

### Hardware Information Collection
Obtains hardware data through low-level system calls and vendor SDKs, such as using the NVML library to read real-time information like memory, temperature, and power consumption of NVIDIA GPUs
### Inference Load Simulation
Built-in multiple inference load simulators, controlling parameters like batch size and sequence length to simulate the LLM forward propagation process
### Performance Indicator Calculation
Processes raw data to generate quantitative indicators such as tokens/second, latency percentiles, and memory utilization, providing a basis for capacity planning

## [Application Scenarios] Practical Value for Data Centers and Heterogeneous Clusters

### Data Center Capacity Planning
Evaluates whether existing hardware meets LLM service requirements and guides equipment procurement decisions
### Heterogeneous Cluster Management
Provides unified hardware profiling capabilities to assist scheduling systems in intelligently assigning tasks
### Performance Benchmarking
Serves as a standardized suite to compare LLM inference performance of different hardware configurations, supporting hardware selection

## [Summary and Outlook] Filling Gaps and Future Expansion Directions

Server-Inspector fills the gap in hardware evaluation tools for LLM inference scenarios. As model sizes grow and hardware diversification trends intensify, its importance will continue to increase. Future plans include expanding support for more accelerator types and integrating more complex load models to simulate real production environments.
