Verified steps

  1. Set up a Triton model repository with a directory for each model: a preprocessing model (Python backend), an inference model, and an ensemble model
  2. Write a config.pbtxt for each component model specifying input and output tensor names, data types, and dimensions
  3. Enable dynamic batching on the inference model by adding a dynamic_batching block in its config.pbtxt; set preferred_batch_size and max_queue_delay_microseconds to tune batching behavior
  4. Define the ensemble model's config.pbtxt with an ensemble_scheduling block that maps output tensors from the preprocessing model to input tensors of the inference model, forming the pipeline graph
  5. Start Triton with docker run pointing to the model repository and use the health endpoint to confirm all models are loaded and ready
  6. Send inference requests to the ensemble model endpoint; Triton routes inputs through the pipeline and applies dynamic batching to the inference model internally
