292Apache-2.0

High-performance lightweight proxy and load balancer for LLM infrastructure. Intelligent routing, automatic failover and unified model discovery across local and remote inference backends.

Pros

  • +Native support for multiple inference backends (llama.cpp, vLLM, Ollama, etc.)
  • +Dual proxy engines for simplicity or high performance
  • +KV-cache-aware sticky sessions for efficient multi-turn conversations
  • +Automatic failover and health checks with circuit breakers

Cons
