Description BatchInfer Runner is a batch inference module for teams that need to run models over large datasets, scheduled prediction jobs, historical backfills, offline scoring tasks, or periodic evaluation workflows. Not every model call happens in real time. Many production and research systems require batch execution: running forecasts for thousands of entities, scoring all customers overnight, generating weekly model outputs, or replaying historical periods for analysis. This module provides a structured runner for loading input batches, applying model inference, recording status, handling failed records, exporting outputs, and organizing batch logs. It can be used with forecasting engines, classification models, ranking models, embedding models, and decision support systems. A typical workflow is to define an input dataset, select a model or endpoint, run batch inference, store outputs, and produce a summary report. The module is not a replacement for a distributed data platform. Very large workloads may still require Spark, Ray, Kubernetes, or cloud batch infrastructure. For production, users should configure retry policies, idempotency, output versioning, monitoring, and cost controls.
