Summary

HeraSys is an LLM serving system designed to optimize the end-to-end performance of concurrent, multi-tenant agentic workflows by eliminating cross-workflow computational redundancy and implementing a load-aware joint scheduling policy. It significantly reduces P99 latency and increases serving throughput under strict latency guarantees.

The increasing use of Large Language Models (LLMs) has shifted serving systems from handling individual requests to orchestrating complex, high-concurrency, multi-tenant agentic workflows. Current solutions typically focus on optimizing within a single workflow, often overlooking the substantial gains possible from optimizing across multiple concurrent workflows. HeraSys is a new LLM serving system specifically engineered to enhance the end-to-end performance of these concurrent workflows. It achieves this through fine-grained orchestration that identifies and eliminates computational redundancy by merging and reusing structural nodes across different workflows. Furthermore, HeraSys incorporates a load-aware joint scheduling policy that dynamically manages execution order based on both inter- and intra-query priorities. By combining a resource skewing mechanism with adaptive batching and pipeline decomposition, HeraSys effectively mitigates tail latency while maintaining low average latency, ultimately boosting serving throughput by up to 1.85x and reducing P99 latency by up to 2.17x in experiments.

Why it matters

For organizations deploying LLMs in production, HeraSys offers a critical solution for managing high-volume, complex AI workloads efficiently, leading to better user experience, lower operational costs, and improved resource utilization.

How to implement this in your domain

  1. 1Evaluate existing LLM serving infrastructure for opportunities to implement inter-workflow optimization.
  2. 2Investigate HeraSys's principles of structural node merging and reuse to reduce computational redundancy.
  3. 3Develop or adapt a load-aware joint scheduling policy for concurrent LLM workflows.
  4. 4Experiment with adaptive batching and pipeline decomposition techniques to mitigate tail latency.
  5. 5Benchmark the performance of your LLM serving system with and without HeraSys-like optimizations to quantify improvements in throughput and latency.
