Open agents on AWS SageMaker AI with open models from the Hugging Face Hub!
> Deploy an open model from the Hugging Face Hub on SageMaker AI
> Connect the deployed model to Strands Agents
> Add built-in and custom tools for tool calling
> Expose external capabilities through MCP integration
> Bonus: talk to your agent and visualize traces with Gradio

TL; DR MoEs can be misleading to reason about from active parameters alone, since each token only activates a subset of experts, while the serving setup still needs to account for the full resident memory footprint.
🧠
🏗️ Dense models usually load and use most weights every forward pass, while MoEs load many experts but only route each token to a few of them
⚡ Active params isn't the same as memory footprint, especially for sparse architectures
📦 Runtime memory is about what is used per request/token, while loading memory also includes the expert weights that need to be resident
📚 KV cache can still dominate depending on context length, batch size, and concurrency
🔀 Expert Parallelism (EP) helps shard experts across accelerators when expert weights dominate
🚀 Data Parallelism (DP) + EP is often a good fit for throughput-oriented MoE serving

hf-mem release added a breakdown of Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) memory usage!TL; DR MoEs can be misleading to reason about from active parameters alone, since each token only activates a subset of experts, while the serving setup still needs to account for the full resident memory footprint.

💡 Alternatively, you can also set the
hf-mem v0.4.1 now also estimates KV cache memory requirements for any context length and batch size with the --experimental flag!uvx hf-mem --model-id ... --experimental will automatically pull the required information from the Hugging Face Hub to include the KV cache estimation, when applicable.💡 Alternatively, you can also set the
--max-model-len, --batch-size and --kv-cache-dtype arguments (à la vLLM) manually if preferred. - 1 reply

🔥 Agents can do anything! @microsoft Research just announced the release of Magma 8B!
Magma is a new Visual Language Model (VLM) with 8B parameters for multi-modal agents designed to handle complex interactions across virtual and real environments; and it's MIT licensed!
Magma comes with exciting new features such as:
- Introduces the Set-of-Mark and Trace-of-Mark techniques for fine-tuning
- Leverages a large amount of unlabeled video data to learn the spatial-temporal grounding and planning
- A strong generalization and ability to be fine-tuned for other agentic tasks
- SOTA in different multi-modal benchmarks spanning across UI navigation, robotics manipulation, image / video understanding and spatial understanding and reasoning
- Generates goal-driven visual plans and actions for agentic use cases
Model: microsoft/Magma-8B
Technical Report: Magma: A Foundation Model for Multimodal AI Agents (2502.13130)
