About

vLLM was originally designed to support large language models for text-based autoregressive generation tasks. vLLM-Omni is a framework that extends its support for omni-modality model inference and serving:

• Omni-modality: Text, image, video, and audio data processing
• Non-autoregressive Architectures: extend the AR support of vLLM to Diffusion Transformers (DiT) and other parallel generation models
• Heterogeneous outputs: from traditional text generation to multimodal outputs

vLLM-Omni is fast with:

• State-of-the-art AR support by leveraging efficient KV cache management from vLLM
• Pipelined stage execution overlapping for high throughput performance
• Fully disaggregation based on OmniConnector and dynamic resource allocation across stages

vLLM-Omni is flexible and easy to use with:

• Heterogeneous pipeline abstraction to manage complex model workflows
• Seamless integration with popular Hugging Face models
• Tensor, pipeline, data and expert parallelism support for distributed inference
• Streaming outputs
• OpenAI-compatible API server

vLLM-Omni seamlessly supports most popular open-source models on HuggingFace, including:

• Omni-modality models (e.g. Qwen2.5-Omni, Qwen3-Omni)
• Multi-modality generation models (e.g. Qwen-Image)
