Support TGI as another backendRuntime

 ## Features Overview
 
 - **Easy of Use**: People can quick deploy a LLM service with minimal configurations.
-- **Broad Backend Support**: llmaz supports a wide range of advanced inference backends for different scenarios, like [vLLM](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm), [SGLang](https://github.com/sgl-project/sglang), [llama.cpp](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp). Find the full list of supported backends [here](./docs/support-backends.md).
+- **Broad Backend Support**: llmaz supports a wide range of advanced inference backends for different scenarios, like [vLLM](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm), [Text-Generation-Inference](https://github.com/huggingface/text-generation-inference), [SGLang](https://github.com/sgl-project/sglang), [llama.cpp](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp). Find the full list of supported backends [here](./docs/support-backends.md).
 - **Scaling Efficiency (WIP)**: llmaz works smoothly with autoscaling components like [Cluster-Autoscaler](https://github.com/kubernetes/autoscaler/tree/master/cluster-autoscaler) or [Karpenter](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/karpenter) to support elastic scenarios.
 - **Accelerator Fungibility (WIP)**: llmaz supports serving the same LLM with various accelerators to optimize cost and performance.
 - **SOTA Inference**: llmaz supports the latest cutting-edge researches like [Speculative Decoding](https://arxiv.org/abs/2211.17192) or [Splitwise](https://arxiv.org/abs/2311.18677)(WIP) to run on Kubernetes.
