Best ultra-throughput play when your model is on Cerebras (official token matrix now pinned). Pair with Groq/Fireworks fallback for catalog holes and rate-limit spikes. Strengths: Extreme throughput on supported models; Differentiated hardware story; Attractive for high-QPS serving.
Lock-in risk: higher = more lock-in (worse). Overall already inverts this dimension.
Best ultra-throughput play when your model is on Cerebras (official token matrix now pinned). Pair with Groq/Fireworks fallback for catalog holes and rate-limit spikes.
Strengths
- · Extreme throughput on supported models
- · Differentiated hardware story
- · Attractive for high-QPS serving
Weaknesses
- · Narrow model/support surface vs GPU hosts
- · Availability and waitlists historically
- · Less commodity than NVIDIA ecosystem
