Questions about SambaNova.
The practical details behind the request, access and result.
What models can I run with SambaNova (AI Inference)?
You can run top-tier open-source models including Meta-Llama-3.3-70B-Instruct and DeepSeek-V3.1. This gives you high-performance options for various tasks.
Is SambaNova (AI Inference) fast enough for real-time apps?
Yes, it's built on SN40L chips designed for record-breaking tokens-per-second. It's a great choice for low-latency requirements.
Can I use SambaNova (AI Inference) for my RAG system?
Definitely. You can use the embedding capability to turn your documents into high-dimensional vectors quickly for your knowledge base.
Does SambaNova (AI Inference) support structured outputs?
Yes, it features a specific capability for typed outputs. This is perfect for building agents that need to return specific data formats.
How do I connect SambaNova (AI Inference) to my AI client?
Just subscribe to the Connector and add your SambaNova Cloud API key to your client. It works with Claude, Cursor, and others.
Is this Connector better than standard LLM providers?
It depends on your needs. If you need high-speed inference on open-source models and lower latency, it's a strong choice.
Which models are available for chat completions?
You can use create_chat_completion with models like Meta-Llama-3.3-70B-Instruct, DeepSeek-V3.1, and MiniMax-M2.5 for high-speed text generation.
Can I generate embeddings for my RAG pipeline?
Yes! Use the create_embedding capability with models like E5-Mistral-7B-Instruct to create vectorized representations of your text data.
What is the difference between create_chat_completion and create_response?
create_chat_completion follows the standard OpenAI chat format, while create_response is a stateless API designed specifically for agentic workflows, returning typed output items.
