Practical guides to memory, serving architecture and reliable operations. Explanations grounded in official documentation, with assumptions you can inspect. Original Aguasto conceptual illustration. Not manufacturer geometry, an operating Aguasto asset, or a measured benchmark. Aguasto Research documents third-party hardware, models and software. References do not represent Aguasto inventory, evaluated deployments or available inference services. ### Selected publications Aguasto learn #### Model weights are only the beginning of the memory budget Help engineers separate a transparent weight-storage estimate from the workload-dependent memory required to serve a model. Sources reviewed Oct 12, 2026 [Model weights are only the beginning of the memory budget](https://www.aguasto.com/learn/model-weights-and-runtime-memory) Aguasto learn #### Prefill, decode and the cost of separating them Explain the two serving phases and when to evaluate disaggregation without claiming automatic throughput gains.
