Abstract
The present disclosure relates to systems, non-transitory computer-readable media, and methods for selecting machine-learning models and hardware environments for executing a task. In particular, in one or more embodiments, the disclosed systems select a designated machine-learning model for executing a task based on workload features of the task and task routing metrics for a plurality of machine-learning models. In addition, in one or more embodiments, the disclosed systems select a designated hardware environment for executing the task based on workload features for the task and task routing metrics for a plurality of hardware environments. In some embodiments, the disclosed systems select a fallback machine-learning model and a fallback hardware environment for executing the task if the designated machine-learning model or designated hardware environment are unavailable. Moreover, in one or more embodiments, the disclosed systems can pause and initiate tasks based on bandwidth availability.
