Real-Time Model Accelerator Selector API with Vercel AI SDK

Develop a real-time hardware accelerator selector API using Vercel AI SDK to route model requests based on memory footprint, interconnect bandwidth, and cost limits. System must achieve sub-10ms routing decisions and optimize cost efficiency by at least 20%.

Delivery guide

How work is evaluated

Evaluation

Evaluates routing decision latency and overall cost savings under dynamic traffic loads.

Datasets

Shared data for this challenge

Review public datasets and any private uploads tied to your build.

Evaluation rubric

How submissions are scored

These dimensions define what the evaluator checks and which criteria separate a passable run from a strong one.

Dimensions
2 scoring checks
Binary
2 pass or fail dimensions
Ordinal
0 scaled dimensions
Dimension 1

Routing Speed SLA

Routing decision latency must be strictly under 10ms.

Binary check

This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.

Dimension 2

Cost Savings Percent

Percentage savings compared to unoptimized static routing. • target: 0.245 • range: 0.2-0.4

Binary check

This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.

Learning goals

What you should walk away with

  • Build dynamic routing components using Vercel AI SDK.
