LLM Proxy
Noun · AI & Machine Learning
Definitions
A proxy service that sits between applications and large language models to add routing, logging, caching, security, or compatibility layers. An LLM proxy can be lighter-weight than a full platform while still centralizing important controls.
In plain English: A proxy layer placed in front of large language model calls.
Example: "They deployed an LLM proxy to mask provider differences and capture consistent usage metrics across products."
