SMG: THE CASE FOR DISAGGREGATING CPU FROM GPU IN LLM SERVING

Shepherd Model Gateway (SMG) is a high-performance model-routing gateway for large-scale LLM deployments. It centralizes worker lifecycle management, balances traffic across HTTP/gRPC/OpenAI-compatible backends, and provides enterprise-ready control over history storage, MCP tooling, and privacy-sensitive workflows. SMG has full OpenAI and Anthropic API compatibility across SGLang, vLLM, TRT-LLM, OpenAI, Gemini, and more. This post discusses the underlying architecture behind the gateway.
