Could you build this?
Partial The HTTP proxy interface is standard, but intercepting incoming inference traffic to orchestrate fast GPU instance cold starts, snapshot restores, and connection pooling requires systems and cloud infrastructure engineering.
What it would actually take: Building a scale-to-zero GPU gateway requires a high-performance reverse proxy (e.g., written in Go or Rust using Envoy or custom Tokio HTTP proxy) that holds incoming HTTP/gRPC requests in a waiting queue. The control plane integrates with cloud provider APIs or Kubernetes (KEDA, custom controllers) to boot instances or wake virtual machines/containers using GPU memory snapshots (such as vLLM with CUDA checkpointing or AWS Fast Snapshot Restore). Managing cold-start latency, health checks, draining active requests safely, and handling sudden traffic spikes requires specialized distributed systems expertise.

Same idea, different domain
Nobody's really built a model & infra tool for Fintech yet.
