• https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dphnAI/sonar/main/README.md recorded 2026-10-07

  README, read for a paid tier, an enterprise edition or a licence-gated build beside the published source, and for whether any component is stated to be private.

No package artifact is declared for Sonar, so GitHub stars are the only adoption signal available. The count should be read as a floor rather than a full measure of use.

  Repo metadata - stargazers_count = 1,844 - for dphnAI/sonar.

Sonar sits one tier below vLLM rather than level with it. Its feature list closely matches vLLM's own, but Sonar is a fork of it, so the capability is inherited rather than independently established, and SGLang holds vLLM's tier on a serving record of its own.

• https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dphnAI/sonar/main/README.md recorded 2026-10-07

  README, read for the engine's feature set: Continuous batching, paged KV-cache management, optimized kernels, quantization, speculative decoding and distributed serving over Hugging Face-compatible models.
