This post announces native PyTorch backends for vLLM and SGLang powered by TorchTPU, enabling developers to run and optimize serving workloads using familiar PyTorch tools. Built in collaboration with open-source project maintainers, these engines include optimized TPU kernel implementations, production-ready features like KV cache management with TPU Sync, and disaggregated serving. Public benchmarks demonstrate state-of-the-art performance and industry-leading cost efficiency on Ironwood TPU across long-context and agentic workloads.

Google Research has completed the 32-bit open-source Coral NPU RISC-V architecture with the introduction of its Matrix Execution Unit, which delivers up to 1 TOPS while targeting 10 mW average power for edge inference. Alongside this architecture, the release of the v1.0 open-source IREE/MLIR compiler allows developers to take models from JAX, PyTorch, and TensorFlow straight to Coral NPU hardware without writing custom assembly. Developers can now prototype and deploy these multimodal edge applications using new hardware options like the Synaptics Astra SR200 MCU series and globally available Coralboard devkits.12
