LiteLLM

LiteLLM is a comprehensive open-source AI gateway and proxy server that revolutionizes how organizations interact with Large Language Models (LLMs). By providing a unified OpenAI-compatible API format to access over 100 different LLMs from providers worldwide, LiteLLM eliminates vendor lock-in and simplifies AI integration. With over 10,000 GitHub stars and adoption by leading enterprises, LiteLLM has become the go-to solution for teams needing reliable, scalable, and cost-effective LLM management infrastructure.

Common Use Cases

LiteLLM serves diverse organizational needs across the AI adoption spectrum. Development teams use it to standardize LLM integration across projects, switching between providers without code changes and implementing A/B testing between models to optimize performance and costs. Enterprise organizations deploy LiteLLM as a centralized AI gateway, managing access controls, tracking usage across departments, and ensuring compliance with budget constraints while providing teams flexibility in model selection. AI startups leverage LiteLLM to build provider-agnostic applications, implementing intelligent routing between models based on cost, latency, or capability requirements, and ensuring high availability through automatic failover mechanisms. Research teams utilize LiteLLM to benchmark different models consistently, track experiment costs, and manage API keys securely while maintaining reproducibility across various LLM providers.

Why deploy LiteLLM on Hostinger VPS

Deploying LiteLLM on Hostinger VPS provides complete control over your AI gateway infrastructure with guaranteed performance and security. Unlike managed AI services, a VPS deployment ensures your API keys and usage data remain within your infrastructure, critical for organizations handling sensitive information or requiring compliance with data residency requirements. The dedicated resources eliminate the throttling and rate limits imposed by shared proxy services, while providing the flexibility to scale resources based on your actual usage patterns. With Hostinger VPS, you can implement custom security policies, integrate with existing monitoring systems, optimize caching strategies for frequently used models, and maintain complete audit trails of all LLM interactions - essential capabilities for enterprises requiring reliable, secure, and compliant AI infrastructure at scale.
