Deploy and Host Bifrost AI Gateway on Railway

Bifrost is an open-source, high-performance AI gateway written in Go that unifies 20+ LLM providers — OpenAI, Anthropic, AWS Bedrock, Google Vertex, Azure, and more — through a single OpenAI-compatible API. Deploy in seconds with automatic failover, load balancing, virtual keys, and enterprise governance. Adds only 11µs overhead at 5,000 RPS.

About Hosting Bifrost

This template deploys Bifrost backed by PostgreSQL for persistent configuration and request log storage. On first boot, Bifrost automatically runs database migrations and launches a full web UI for visual provider setup, real-time monitoring, and analytics. All provider API keys, virtual keys, budgets, and governance settings persist in Postgres across restarts and redeploys. Connect any AI provider directly from the UI — no code changes required.

Common Use Cases

• Multi-provider AI gateway with automatic failover across OpenAI, Anthropic, AWS Bedrock, and 17+ more providers
• Enterprise cost governance with virtual keys, hierarchical budgets, and rate limits per team or customer
• Drop-in replacement for OpenAI and Anthropic SDKs — change one base URL, gain failover and full observability
• MCP gateway for coding agents like Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex CLI
• High-throughput AI infrastructure handling 5,000+ RPS with semantic caching to cut token costs

Dependencies for Bifrost Hosting
