    Building a GenAI Platform at DoorDashConference talk, InfoQ

    DoorDash runs the Claude API with an Amazon Bedrock fallback, and OpenAI with an Azure fallback, behind one gateway that attributes cost to each department. The platform team names rising cost at scale and model deprecations that force migrations across hundreds of use cases.

    "We actually had to go understand what the fallback should be, what kind of routing should be. At one point, I remember we had OpenAI endpoint, but we also had a fallback on Azure endpoint. Or, we had Claude model API endpoint, then we had a fallback on Bedrock, so that the services can rely on us from the reliability point of view. We went in that direction. We quickly realized that as the usage is going up, then we need a way to track, because now finance got involved. Like, you guys have one API key for multiple teams, how do I track who is using what? We quickly realized we need workspaces where we have cost attribution. We can actually drill down on who is using how much. We can attribute cost back to those departments. That's what basically we did with LLM Gateway."
