Apple details distributed LLM inference on Mac Studio with MLX and RDMA

Original: Local and Distributed Large LLM Inference with MLX and RDMA on Mac Studio

Apple has published research describing how to run large language model inference locally and across multiple machines using its MLX framework, with RDMA networking connecting Mac Studio clusters. The write-up shows how Thunderbolt or high-speed interconnects let several Macs behave like one large-memory system for serving big models, drawing interest from developers running AI workloads on Apple hardware instead of GPU servers.

Why now: Apple's new guidance on clustering Mac Studio machines for large model inference is a notable alternative to NVIDIA-based setups.
