NIXL Python API (CUDA 12)

NIXL (NVIDIA Inference Xfer Library) is an open-source Python API designed to accelerate point-to-point communications in AI inference frameworks. It provides a unified abstraction layer over various memory types (CPU, GPU) and storage (file, block, object store) through a modular plugin architecture. The `nixl-cu12` package specifically targets CUDA 12 environments. NIXL is actively maintained with frequent releases, with version 1.0.0 being the current stable release.
