Applications now orchestrate multiple models, retrieve and synthesize data, execute tools, and repeat this cycle in production. These are no longer stateless requests. They are dynamic systems that behave more like infrastructure than software features. Four shifts are redefining what infrastructure has to do: Inference has over
