I wish all the best to LiteLLM team with handling it again. I can imagine how challenging are situations like this one.

However, if anyone is looking for 20x faster and less "targeted" LiteLLM alternative - I'm work on one in Go. That's why GoModel it's called. https://github.com/ENTERPILOT/GoModel/

Sounds like a reasonable choice of a language.

I myself have written a small llm proxy in Go, doing nothing but injecting the real API key to outgoing requests while itself validating virtual keys it generates, and it works great.

If you don't use any LLM router, it's infinity times faster, and infitesimally as targetted.

  • I have GoModel running at home, being deployed at work. There are many good reasons to run a gateway, some include

    - being resilient to upstream provider downtime

    - centrally managed config/controls

    - visibility and allocation into usage and costs

    We are deploying a gateway at work primarily for these three.

    At home, GoModel's virtual models have been super helpful for testing out new open weights. I can change the model deployed in vLLM without having to change any of my downstream tools, which get a stable name.
