The author is unfortunately wrong. NVIDIA's Triton was referenced in marketing material as far back as 2018. https://developer.nvidia.com/blog/nvidia-serves-deep-learnin...

Are we sure that marketing article was not changed after the fact? The Nvidia Triton Release notes show 'Starting in release 20.03, TensorRT Inference Server is now called Triton Inference Server.' [0]

It kind of looks like the article just changed the heading later since in the article the docker images they refer to etc. are all still called 'tensorrtserver' which was the project's name before they changed naming in Release 20.03.

The OpenAI-Triton Author says on reddit: 'You can also look at the github history and you will see that there is no mention of the "Triton inference server" up until version 2.0, which wasn't out in 2019 (I ran `git reset --hard v1.9.0 ; grep -ir "triton" .`)' [1]

Eh, I suspect the author is mistaken here, but who knows, maybe that was updated after the fact? Hard to say who is right.

Confusingly similar: check

Same industry: check

Maybe the author should expect an incoming C&D. IIRC US is first-to-use, so NVIDIA would prevail?
