In recent years, AI technologies have evolved rapidly, and these capabilities are now accessible through APIs, making it easier for developers and enterprises to integrate AI into their applications. Whether it's natural language processing, image generation, or text summarization, AI APIs have become essential for modern applications.
However, this comes with its own set of challenges. As AI adoption increases across teams and services, organizations face issues around security, compliance, usage governance, and cost control. Unmonitored or uncontrolled API usage can lead to sudden cost spikes, service throttling, or even disruptions due to quota exhaustion. There’s also the growing complexity of managing multiple API credentials, handling provider-specific security, and tracking usage across teams.
To solve these challenges, we're excited to introduce the Managed GenAI Service Registration capability in Choreo. The Choreo AI Gateway acts as the secure, governed control point for all GenAI traffic.
With just a few clicks, platform engineers and administrators can enable secure, governed access to supported AI providers.
Key capabilities of the Choreo AI Gateway
- Rate Limiting and Cost Control: Apply token-based rate limits at the egress gateway level to prevent unexpected costs. Limit usage by prompt, completion, or total tokens to ensure controlled access to AI APIs.
- Observability and Monitoring (Coming Soon): Track AI API consumption with detailed logs. Monitor key metrics like error rates and latency to detect performance issues and understand usage trends early.
- Dynamic Credential Management: Securely manage and apply provider-specific credentials for each environment. Ideal for teams using multiple subscriptions or API keys across environments.
- Unified Access for Developers: Once a service is registered, it becomes instantly available through the Choreo internal marketplace. Developers can consume services without needing access to the provider’s URL, credentials, or quota settings.
The upcoming Choreo AI Gateway brings secure, cost-controlled, and developer-friendly access to AI APIs. With built-in governance, observability, and seamless service publishing, it simplifies AI adoption at scale.
Watch the demo video to see how easy it is to:
- Keep your AI credentials safe and easy to manage - without exposing them to users
- Enforce usage governance through token-based rate limits
- Publish AI services to the internal marketplace for developers to easily consume
