SGLang integration

Ray Serve LLM provides an OpenAI-compatible API that integrates with SGLang via the server_cls parameter on LLMConfig. Most engine_kwargs that work with sglang serve also work here, giving you SGLang's feature set through Ray Serve's distributed deployment capabilities.

The integration uses SGLangServer, a custom server class that wraps SGLang's in-process engine and exposes chat, completions, embeddings, tokenize, and detokenize endpoints through the standard Ray Serve LLM protocol.

This compatibility means you can:

  • Use SGLang's RadixAttention and other optimizations with Ray Serve's production features
  • Deploy SGLang models with autoscaling, multi-model serving, and advanced routing
  • Serve models across multiple nodes with tensor and pipeline parallelism

:::{note} Community SGLang support is in early development. Track progress and provide feedback at ray-project/ray#61114. :::

Prerequisites

pip install "ray[llm]" "sglang[all,ray]"

Set the following environment variable before running any example:

  • CUDA: RAY_EXPERIMENTAL_NOSET_CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0
  • ROCm: RAY_EXPERIMENTAL_NOSET_HIP_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0

Online serving (single node)

Deploy a single-node SGLang model with autoscaling. The server_cls parameter tells Ray Serve LLM to use the SGLangServer instead of the default vLLM engine.

Online serving (multi-node with TP+PP)

Deploy a large model across multiple nodes using tensor parallelism (TP=4) and pipeline parallelism (PP=2). This requires 2 nodes with 4 GPUs each (8 GPUs total).

The placement_group_strategy: "PACK" fills GPUs on each node before moving to the next, so with 2 nodes (4 GPUs each) each node gets one pipeline stage. The SGLangServer.get_deployment_options() method constructs placement groups from the placement_group_config.

Limitations

The following SGLang features are available upstream but not yet integrated into Ray Serve LLM. Community contributions are welcome:

  • Engine replicas: Multiple engine replicas within a single deployment. See ray-project/ray#62480.
  • Observability: Engine-level metrics (e.g. KV cache utilization, request queue depth).
  • Prefill disaggregation: Separating prefill and decode phases across different workers.
  • Wide EP: Wide expert parallelism for Mixture-of-Experts models.
  • Elastic EP: Fault-tolerant expert parallelism with dynamic rank health tracking.
  • Transcriptions and score: The /v1/audio/transcriptions and /v1/score endpoints.

Dependencies

SGLang's in-process engine overrides Python signal handlers on startup. The SGLangServer.__init__ includes a workaround that saves and restores signal handlers around engine initialization. If you encounter issues with graceful shutdown, this is a known area of friction.
