Chameleon: Next-Gen Infrastructure for RALMs

A heterogeneous accelerator system optimizing retrieval-augmented LLMs

Chameleon introduces a disaggregated architecture that efficiently combines LLM and vector search accelerators to power retrieval-augmented language models (RALMs).

  • Enables smaller, more efficient language models while maintaining generation quality
  • Reduces computational requirements by orders of magnitude
  • Integrates specialized hardware components in a flexible system architecture
  • Optimizes performance for both LLM inference and vector database retrieval operations

This innovation represents a significant engineering advancement for AI infrastructure, addressing the growing demand for more efficient and specialized systems to support context-aware AI applications at scale.
