Partnering with F5 to Productionize Enterprise AI
We are thrilled to announce that Portkey is partnering with F5, the creators of NGINX and global leader in multi-cloud application security & delivery, to bring enterprise AI apps to production.
By integrating our AI Gateway and Observability Suite with F5 Distributed Cloud Services, we are accelerating the path to production for AI teams to deploy, manage, and monitor their LLM applications.
The combination of Portkey's expertise in AI application deployments and F5's robust application delivery and security capabilities creates a powerful solution that addresses the critical challenges faced by enterprises leveraging AI.
So, what would this look like?
1. Intelligent LLM Orchestration
At the heart of our partnership lies our intelligent LLM orchestration capabilities. Our AI gateway intelligently routes API requests to the most suitable LLM backend based on factors such as model capabilities, performance, and availability. This ensures that each request receives the most appropriate and efficient response, enhancing the overall user experience.
Imagine a customer service chatbot powered by multiple LLMs, each specializing in different domains and languages. When a user interacts with the chatbot, Portkey's intelligent routing system assesses the request and directs it to the LLM best suited to provide an accurate and timely response. This level of intelligent orchestration is crucial for delivering high-quality AI-driven experiences.
Configurations for fallbacks, load balancing, experimentation and more give AI teams the flexibility to make their AI gateway setups match the policies defined internally.
2. High Availability and Scalability
Partnering with F5 allows us to leverage their traffic management capabilities through F5 Distributed Cloud Services. This ensures the seamless distribution of workloads across multiple Portkey instances, maintaining high availability and performance even during peak demand.
Whether you're dealing with a sudden surge in API requests or need to scale your AI application to handle growing user demand, the combination of Portkey and F5 Distributed Cloud Services has you covered. Our joint solution enables you to deliver reliable and responsive AI experiences, no matter the scale.
3. Automated Failover and Resilience
In the event of an LLM backend issue or failure, the gateway's built-in fallback mechanisms spring into action. Our system automatically detects the problem and seamlessly reroutes traffic to alternative LLM backends, ensuring uninterrupted service and minimizing downtime.
F5's application delivery features complement this by facilitating smooth traffic transitions, further enhancing the resilience of your AI application.
4. Comprehensive Observability and Insights
Portkey's observability suite provides real-time logs, metrics, and traces, offering valuable insights into the performance, usage patterns, and health of your LLM applications. These insights empower you to optimize your AI deployments, make data-driven decisions, and continuously improve your services.
By gaining a deep understanding of how your LLMs are performing and being utilized, you can identify areas for improvement, allocate resources more effectively, and ensure that your AI applications are delivering maximum value to your users.
5. Enterprise-Grade Security
Security is a top priority for any enterprise deploying AI applications, and our partnership with F5 ensures that your LLM deployments are protected by the best in the business. F5 Distributed Cloud Services' Web App and API Protection (WAAP) features fortify the AI application stack, defending against sophisticated cyber threats and maintaining the integrity and confidentiality of your data.
With Portkey.ai and F5 working together, you can have peace of mind knowing that your AI applications are not only performant and reliable but also secure against the ever-evolving landscape of digital threats.
