Build vs Buy - LLM Gateways
Blog post from Portkey
Large Language Model (LLM) Gateways are critical infrastructure for managing AI workflows, prompting organizations to decide between building a custom solution or purchasing an off-the-shelf platform. Building an in-house gateway offers customization and security benefits, particularly for industries with strict data privacy requirements, but demands significant resources, expertise, and ongoing maintenance. Conversely, buying an LLM Gateway ensures rapid deployment, cost efficiency, and access to robust vendor support and features, though it may limit customization and risk vendor lock-in. Tools like Portkey exemplify enterprise-grade solutions that blend open-source flexibility with comprehensive features, allowing businesses to focus on AI application optimization while minimizing operational burdens. The choice between building or buying hinges on aligning with business goals, resources, and desired outcomes, with each option presenting unique advantages and challenges.
