Introducing the Otoroshi LLM Extension by Cloud APIM

🔍 What Is the Otoroshi LLM Extension?

The Otoroshi LLM Extension by Cloud APIM is a groundbreaking module that enhances the capabilities of the open-source API Gateway Otoroshi, turning it into a powerful AI Gateway.

It enables a complete integration with leading large language model (LLM) providers such as OpenAI, Mistral, Anthropic, Azure, Hugging Face, and much more providers : all through a unified API.

This innovation brings AI-native API management to the forefront, letting companies integrate conversational AI, generative models, and intelligent services directly into their infrastructure.

Best features from the Otoroshi LLM Extension

Multi-Provider AI Compatibility

Easily switch or combine multiple LLMs like GPT from OpenAI, Claude, Mistral, your own internal company models or open-source models via a single standardized API.

This reduces vendor lock-in and increases flexibility for AI workflows.
