From Python Function to Serverless GPU with Runpod Flash

Speaker

Jessica Garson Beauchemin

Developer Relations Lead, Runpod

Abstract

Deploying AI applications often involves containers, GPU configuration, dependency management, and infrastructure scaling. Runpod Flash offers a simpler, code-first approach. It lets you define remote functions and hardware requirements in Python and run them on serverless GPUs.

In this talk, we’ll explore how Flash moves Python workloads from local development to cloud deployment, examine its underlying programming model, and build a GPU-backed endpoint. Along the way, we’ll discuss where Flash fits in the AI development stack, the problems it solves, and the trade-offs developers should consider. Attendees will leave with a practical understanding of how to turn local AI code into a scalable service without needing to become infrastructure experts.
