    The Lambda Cloud API is the REST control plane for launching, listing, starting, stopping, and terminating
    GPU instances, managing SSH keys, firewalls, filesystems, images, and instance types. It supports
    on-demand single instances and underpins programmatic access to Lambda's GPU fleet.

  description: >-
    Lambda Inference API is an OpenAI-compatible REST gateway at https://api.lambda.ai/v1 that serves
    hosted open-source language models (Llama, DeepSeek, Hermes, Qwen, and others) behind the standard
    OpenAI Chat Completions surface. Chat completion responses can be streamed as HTTP Server-Sent Events
    by setting "stream":true on the POST /chat/completions request body; the SSE stream emits chat.completion.chunk
    events terminated by a data [DONE] sentinel. As of 2026-05-29 Lambda has announced the Inference API
    is winding down in favor of customer self-hosted deployments on Lambda GPU instances.
