Enable LLM provider policy-based rate limiting
Protect your LLM services with rate limiting. The AI Rate Limiting Advanced Policy analyzes query costs and token responses to provide an enterprise-grade rate limiting strategy.
The following example uses OpenAI, but you can apply the same strategies to any supported LLM provider.
Prerequisites
- An existing AI Model.
