8B and 70B on one machineThe 8B runs comfortably on a dedicated DGX Spark; the 70B fits the same machine in a quantized build. 405B is a multi-GPU deployment.
Licence handledThe Llama 3.1 community licence allows commercial use under its conditions; AxForge deploys under it and tells you exactly what applies to you.

Deployment

What "managed deployment" means

SystemA dedicated NVIDIA DGX Spark (GB10, 128 GB unified memory), reserved for you
Commercial modelHour, week, month or year. Hardware from €0.85/hour, managed service quoted per deployment
EndpointOpenAI-compatible /v1 on your own machine, only your traffic
LocationHosted in the EU: Málaga, Spain (eu-es-1)
Data handlingZero prompt retention, same policy as the serverless API

The model is validated on AxForge hardware and deployed on your system. After deployment, your endpoint speaks the OpenAI API with the model name you receive with the deployment.

Data & privacy

Zero prompt retention

Prompts and completions are processed in memory in the EU, not written to disk, not logged, not retained, and never used to train anything. We keep only request metadata (token counts, timestamps, status) for billing and operations. The full policy is at axforge.ai/privacy.

FAQ

Llama 3.1 hosting: common questions

Not on the serverless API. It is available as a managed deployment: validated on AxForge hardware and deployed on a DGX Spark for your traffic only. The serverless API serves Qwen3.8 27B.

Which Llama 3.1 size fits a DGX Spark?

8B natively and 70B in a quantized build, both with the 128k context; 405B needs a multi-GPU system, which AxForge scopes with you.

Is Llama 3.1 free to use commercially?

Under the Llama 3.1 community licence, yes for almost every business. The licence carries conditions, and AxForge walks you through them before deployment.

How fast is Llama 3.1 on your hardware?

We publish only numbers we measure ourselves, and we haven't benchmarked this model on our nodes yet. For quality benchmarks, see the official model card.

What does a dedicated Llama 3.1 deployment look like?

A dedicated NVIDIA DGX Spark (GB10, 128 GB unified memory) rented by the hour, week, month or year, running Llama 3.1 behind an OpenAI-compatible endpoint on your own machine, hosted in the EU with zero prompt retention.

What does EU Llama 3.1 hosting cost?

Hardware from €0.85/hour, by the hour, week, month or year; the managed service is quoted per deployment. Request deployment and we confirm both in writing.
