Running Self-Hosted LLM Inference on Cloud Container Infrastructure Is Complex

Developers exploring self-hosted LLM inference find that running models like Gemma on Azure Container Apps requires significant configuration to handle runtime behavior, memory constraints, and scaling. The tooling ecosystem for lightweight self-hosted inference stacks lacks opinionated starter templates that reduce setup time. This gap is growing as cost and privacy concerns drive more teams toward private inference deployments.
