Deploying Stable Diffusion on m7i.4xlarge and Accelerate with OpenVINO

Explaining on how to deploy Stable Diffusion on EC2

Published Feb 12, 2024
Hi I’m Beny, this is my 1st article in AWS Community. In this article you will learn on how to deploy Stable Diffusion running on EC2 m7i.4xlarge (Intel® 4th Gen) and using OpenVINO to enhance AI Inferencing.

Stable Diffusion Overview

Stable Diffusion, a text-to-image model unveiled in 2022 and rooted in diffusion methodologies, epitomizes the burgeoning AI advancements of its time. Its core function lies in crafting intricate images based on textual cues, yet its utility extends to various tasks like inpainting, outpainting, and text-guided image translations.
Stable Diffusion
employs a specific diffusion model (DM) known as a latent diffusion model
(LDM), pioneered by the CompVis group at LMU Munich.
Stable Diffusion represents a significant advancement in the realm of text-to-image model generation, offering broad accessibility while demanding considerably less computational resources compared to other models in the field. Its functionalities encompass text-to-image conversion, image-to-image transformation, graphic artwork creation, image editing, and video production.
In text-to-image generation, Stable Diffusion is widely employed. It constructs images based on textual inputs, allowing for diverse image outcomes through adjustments to the random seed number or manipulation of the denoising schedule for varied effects.
Furthermore, in image-to-image generation, Stable Diffusion facilitates the creation of images using both input images and textual prompts. A typical application involves generating images from sketches paired with relevant prompts.

OpenVINO Overview

The OpenVINO™ toolkit, an open-source platform,
enhances AI inference by minimizing latency and maximizing throughput without
compromising accuracy. It achieves this by reducing model size, optimizing
hardware utilization, and facilitating streamlined development and integration
of deep learning across various domains such as computer vision, large language
models, and generative AI.
