   An LLM response cache that's aware of dynamic data▲17

   Raymond here from Butter.dev, an LLM response cache built as a chat-completions proxy. Today we're launching a key feature for the platform: the ability to generalize on dynamic, templated inputs. Caching at the HTTP request level has the obvious problem of generalizability. Nearly no request is identical, due to templated variables (like names) and metadata (like timestamps), so exact-match cache lookups rarely hit. We solve this at Butter by using LLMs to detect dynamic content in requests and derive their inter-relationships, allowing the cache entry to be stored as a template + variables…

    Semcache – I built a semantic cache in Rust▲5

    Have a look at my semantic caching project! It's built to easily integrate in existing LLM workflows, you can use it as a proxy where the cache forwards missed requests without modification to a specified upstream, automatically updating it's cache with the response. You can also use it as a cache-aside cache with a provided python library. It works by computing embedding vectors of input queries, and matches them to seen query + response pairs using a vector store. Everything is in-memory, so it should be blazing fast :)

    PipeGate – A Lightweight, Self-Hosted Proxy to Expose Local Servers▲33

    Hi Hacker News, I’d like to introduce PipeGate, a lightweight, self-hosted proxy built with FastAPI.
