DeepSparse is a sparsity-aware deep learning inference runtime designed to accelerate CPU-based AI model inference. Neural Magic, the company behind DeepSparse, was acquired by Red Hat in 2025 and shifted toward commercial and open-source offerings focused on vLLM for virtual large language models. As part of this transition, the community versions of DeepSparse and related tools were deprecated and are no longer updated.
