⚠️ Deprecation Notice: llm-d-deployer

This repository is no longer actively maintained.

The llm-d-deployer repository previously hosted monolithic Helm charts for installing components of the llm-d ecosystem. As of 25-07-2025, we are deprecating this repository in favor of a more modular and composable approach provided by llm-d-infra.

✅ Migration to llm-d-infra

The llm-d-infra repository contains pre-curated deployment examples of the llm-d ecosystem using Helmfile. It enables flexible configuration and composition of the following:

• Similar quickstart pattern to deployer for creating namespace, deploying metrics infrastructure, creating secret for the HF_TOKEN, etc.
  • See the installer script for more information.
• Gateway Deployment and configurations are based on the install of the llm-d-infra charts
• Installation of the new modelservice helm charts
  • The controller pattern for modelservice was deprecated, same with the idea of baseConfig presets and sampleApplications. Instead the modelservice charts focus on clearer deployments with modularity, allowing people to opt in or out of all components (epp, P/D deployments or leaderWorkerSets, inferencepool, inferencemodel, etc.). For more information check out their getting-started docs
• Compatibility with upstream GIE charts
  • Most of our examples feature this, but the simple example would be the easiest place to start to experience the composability with upstream GIE charts

You are encouraged to migrate any existing deployments to the examples provided in llm-d-infra, or use it as a reference to build your own Helmfile stacks.

📦 What Happens to This Repo?
