Introducing the Baseten Frontier Gateway
Blog post from Baseten
Baseten has introduced the Frontier Gateway, a managed API gateway designed to streamline the launch of production-grade, multi-tenant inference APIs for model labs without the need to build or buy separate infrastructure. Built on Baseten Dedicated Inference, this gateway minimizes latency and integration overhead by co-locating with inference infrastructure, offering features such as authentication, federated API key management, rate limiting, billing, and white-label branding. This innovation comes amidst a transformative period for AI development, where accessibility to tools and talent has democratized the field, leading to a surge in new model labs. By focusing on research rather than infrastructure, these labs can leverage the Baseten Frontier Gateway to efficiently manage complex workflows and performance-optimized workloads, thus maintaining their competitive edge. Poolside, an early adopter, has reported impressive results, highlighting the speed and quality of Baseten's platform, which is now available for onboarding new labs.
