We just released native support for
@SGLang
and
@vllm-project
in Inference Endpoints 🔥
Inference Endpoints is becoming the central place where you deploy high performance Inference Engines.
And that provides the managed infra for it. Instead of spending weeks configuring infrastructure, managing servers, and debugging deployment issues, you can focus on what matters most: your AI model and your users 🙌

It's been a bit since I took a step back and looked at
xet-team
progress to migrate Hugging Face from Git LFS to Xet, but every time I do it boggles the mind.
A month ago there were 5,500 users/orgs on Xet with 150K repos and 4PB. Today?
🤗 700,000 users/orgs
📈 350,000 repos
🚀 15PB
Meanwhile, our migrations have pushed throughput to numbers that are bonkers. In June, we hit upload speeds of 577Gb/s (crossing 500Gb/s for the first time).
These are hard numbers to put into context, but let's try:
The latest run of the Common Crawl from
commoncrawl
was 471 TB.
We now have ~32 crawls stored in Xet. At peak upload speed we could move the latest crawl into Xet in about two hours.
We're moving to a new phase in the process, so stay tuned.
This shift in gears means it's also time to roll up our sleeves and look at all the bytes we have and the value we're adding to the community.
I already have some homework from @RichardErkhov to look at the dedupe across their uploads, and I'll be doing the same for other early adopters, big models/datasets, and frequent uploaders (looking at you @bartowski 👀)
Let me know if there's anything you're interested in; happy to dig in!

Heyo
@RichardErkhov
the
xet-team
at Hugging face was wondering if you wanted to join the fun and jump over to Xet storage. 🤗
We've been onboarding folks https://huggingface.co/blog/xet-on-the-hub know the backend can scale (Llama 4 and Qwen 3 are on Xet), is great for working with quants (see xet-team/quantization-dedup ), and we're pushing on inviting impactful orgs and users on the Hub. You fit the bill.
We'd love to onboard you, get some feedback, and create some excitement 🎉
The steps are pretty straightforward - join the waitlist at hf.co/join/xet and we'll take care of the rest.
The system is fully backward compatible, so you shouldn't notice a thing. BUT to get the best experience when uploading/downloading, make sure you have
What do you think?

hey hey
@mradermacher
- VB from Hugging Face here, we'd love to onboard you over to our optimised xet backend! 💥
as you know we're in the process of upgrading our storage backend to xet (which helps us scale and offer blazingly fast upload/ download speeds too): https://huggingface.co/blog/xet-on-the-hub and now that we are certain that the backend can scale with even big models like Llama 4/ Qwen 3 - we;re moving to the next phase of inviting impactful orgs and users on the hub over as you are a big part of the open source ML community - we would love to onboard you next and create some excitement about it in the community too!
in terms of actual steps - it should be as simple as one of the org admins to join hf.co/join/xet - we'll take care of the rest.
p.s. you'd need to have a the latest hf_xet version of huggingface_hub lib but everything else should be the same: https://huggingface.co/docs/hub/storage-backends#using-xet-storage
p.p.s. this is fully backwards compatible so everything will work as it should! 🤗

Important notice 🚨
For Inference Providers who have built support for our Billing API (currently: Fal, Novita, HF-Inference – with more coming soon), we've started enabling Pay as you go (=PAYG)
What this means is that you can use those Inference Providers beyond the free included credits, and they're charged to your HF account.
You can see it on this view: any provider that does not have a "Billing disabled" badge, is PAYG-compatible.

🦥 Introducing Unsloth Dynamic v2.0 GGUFs!
Our v2.0 quants set new benchmarks on 5-shot MMLU and KL Divergence, meaning you can now run & fine-tune quantized LLMs while preserving as much accuracy as possible.
Llama 4: unsloth/Llama-4-Scout-17B-16E-Instruct-GGUF
DeepSeek-R1: unsloth/DeepSeek-R1-GGUF-UD
Gemma 3: unsloth/gemma-3-27b-it-GGUF
We made selective layer quantization much smarter. Instead of modifying only a subset of layers, we now dynamically quantize all layers so every layer has a different bit. Now, our dynamic method can be applied to all LLM architectures, not just MoE's.
Blog with Details: https://docs.unsloth.ai/basics/dynamic-v2.0
All our future GGUF uploads will leverage Dynamic 2.0 and our hand curated 300K–1.5M token calibration dataset to improve conversational chat performance.
For accurate benchmarking, we built an evaluation framework to match the reported 5-shot MMLU scores of Llama 4 and Gemma 3. This allowed apples-to-apples comparisons between full-precision vs. Dynamic v2.0, QAT and standard iMatrix quants.
Dynamic v2.0 aims to minimize the performance gap between full-precision models and their quantized counterparts.
