LiteLLM Competence Center Switzerland

Deploy, scale, and operate LiteLLM as your unified AI gateway on Swiss cloud infrastructure. VSHN combines deep Kubernetes expertise with platform engineering to run your LiteLLM proxy on APPUiO, OpenShift, enterprise private cloud, or sovereign cloud infrastructure — reliably, securely, and with full Swiss data residency.

Unified AI Gateway

Route requests to 100+ LLM providers through a single OpenAI-format API with LiteLLM. VSHN deploys and operates your LiteLLM proxy on Kubernetes so your applications can switch between Anthropic, OpenAI, Mistral, and self-hosted models without code changes — all routed through Swiss infrastructure with full request logging and auditability.

Cost Tracking and Budget Controls

Monitor per-model, per-team, and per-project LLM spending in real time with LiteLLM's built-in cost tracking. VSHN configures budget alerts, spending caps, and chargeback reporting so you always know what your AI workloads cost and can allocate resources efficiently across departments and use cases.

Rate Limiting and Guardrails

Protect your LLM infrastructure with per-user rate limiting, content filtering, and request validation. VSHN configures LiteLLM's guardrail framework on Kubernetes with SSO and RBAC integration so only authorised users and applications can access specific models, with configurable throttling to prevent runaway costs.

Multi-Provider Load Balancing

Distribute LLM requests across multiple providers and model deployments for reliability and cost optimisation. VSHN engineers LiteLLM's load balancing with failover routing, latency-based selection, and provider health checks on OpenShift and Kubernetes, ensuring your AI applications stay responsive even when individual providers experience outages.

Swiss Data Residency

LiteLLM proxy logs, API keys, and request metadata stay in Swiss data centres. VSHN operates on Exoscale, cloudscale.ch, and other Swiss cloud providers, ensuring full GDPR compliance and data residency for organisations that need to control where their LLM prompts and completions are routed and logged.

Observability and Analytics

Monitor request latency, token usage, error rates, and provider performance across your entire LLM gateway. VSHN integrates Prometheus, Grafana, and LiteLLM's analytics dashboards into your platform so you always know which models perform best, where bottlenecks are, and when to adjust routing or scaling policies.

Frequently Asked Questions

What platforms does VSHN support for LiteLLM workloads?
VSHN deploys and operates LiteLLM on APPUiO (our managed Kubernetes platform), Red Hat OpenShift, enterprise private cloud infrastructure, and sovereign cloud partners. All platforms run on Swiss or European data centres and are backed by our 99.9% uptime SLA. We help you choose the right platform based on your compliance, performance, and budget requirements.
Which cloud providers are available for LiteLLM hosting?
VSHN operates on multiple Swiss cloud providers including Exoscale and cloudscale.ch, as well as European sovereign cloud partners. LiteLLM itself can route requests to over 100 LLM providers, but the proxy infrastructure and all request logs remain on Swiss servers. All infrastructure is managed under a single SLA with 24/7 support from our operations team.
How does LiteLLM work as an AI gateway?
LiteLLM acts as a proxy that translates requests into a unified OpenAI-format API, regardless of the backend provider. It adds only 8ms P95 latency overhead while providing cost tracking, rate limiting, load balancing, and SSO-based access control. VSHN deploys LiteLLM on Kubernetes with high availability, automated scaling, and full observability for production workloads.
What is the pricing model for managed LiteLLM infrastructure?
Pricing depends on your platform choice and resource requirements. A typical starting point for a managed Kubernetes namespace with LiteLLM proxy begins at CHF 1,500 per month, including 24/7 operations, monitoring, and backup. Storage for request logs and analytics data is billed separately starting at CHF 0.09 per GB per month. Contact us for a tailored quote based on your workload.
Which LLM providers can I route through LiteLLM?
LiteLLM supports over 100 providers including OpenAI, Anthropic, Mistral, Cohere, Azure OpenAI, and self-hosted models served via vLLM or Ollama. VSHN configures provider connections, API key management, and failover routing on Kubernetes so your applications get a single reliable endpoint regardless of which models you use behind the scenes.
How does VSHN ensure data sovereignty for LiteLLM workloads?
The LiteLLM proxy, all request logs, API keys, and configuration run in Swiss data centres operated by Swiss or European sovereign cloud providers. As a VSHN Swiss Select Partner, we guarantee that all operational access is from Switzerland-based engineers. You control which external LLM providers receive prompts, and we provide audit trails for compliance reporting.
Can VSHN integrate LiteLLM with existing infrastructure?
Yes. LiteLLM exposes a standard OpenAI-compatible API, so existing applications need no code changes. VSHN also integrates LiteLLM with MCP servers, retrieval-augmented generation pipelines, and managed PostgreSQL with pgvector for vector storage — with up to 720 GB of backup storage and the same 99.9% SLA as all our managed database services.
What monitoring and observability does VSHN provide for LiteLLM?
VSHN integrates Prometheus and Grafana into every managed platform, with custom dashboards for LiteLLM-specific metrics: request latency (p50, p95, p99), tokens per request, cost per provider, error rates, and cache hit ratios. Alerting rules notify your team and our 24/7 operations centre when metrics breach thresholds, so issues are caught before they affect users.
How do I get started with VSHN's LiteLLM services?
Contact us through the form below or email info@vshn.ch for an initial consultation. We assess your current LLM usage patterns, provider requirements, and compliance constraints, then propose an architecture running on APPUiO, OpenShift, or your preferred infrastructure. Most customers go from initial consultation to a running production platform in two to four weeks.
