Three Routes to Deployment Hardware Clarity
Each offering is designed around where your team currently sits in the deployment planning process — from early research through to a focused, scoped engagement.
← Back to HomeHow draviak Structures Deployment Guidance
1. Characterise
Define the model's hardware requirements — architecture characteristics, precision needs, expected query volume, latency constraints.
2. Map Options
Identify the hardware categories and configurations that fit the characterised requirements against the serving environment constraints.
3. Reason Tradeoffs
Work through the tradeoffs between throughput, latency, cost, and operational complexity for the options that match the requirements.
This three-step structure runs through all draviak offerings. The Guidance Library covers it through reference articles. The Planning Workshop applies it to your team's specific workload. The Custom Engagement builds a written reference around your organisation's stated questions using this same framework.
