AI Central

AI Central gives you control over your AI services.

  • Intelligent Routing
  • Custom consumer OAuth2 authorisation
  • Fallback AI service
  • Round Robin AI services
  • Lowest Latency AI service
  • Circuit breakers, and backoff-retry over downstream AI services
  • Request based and Token based rate limiting
  • Prompt and usage logging
    • Works for streaming endpoints as-well as non streaming

Configuration

See docs on Github for more details.

Minimal

This sample produces a AI-Central proxy that

  • Listens on a hostname of your choosing
  • Proxies directly through to a back-end Open AI server
  • Can be accessed using standard SDKs

Full example

This pipeline will:

  • Present an Azure Open AI, and an Open AI downstream as a single upstream endpoint
    • maps incoming Azure Open AI deployments to Open AI models
  • Present it as an Azure Open AI style endpoint
  • Protect the front-end by requiring an AAD token issued for your own AAD application
  • Put a local Asp.Net core rate-limiting policy over the endpoint
  • Add logging to Azure monitor
    • Logs quota, client caller information, and in this case the Prompt but not the response.
