What is CogCache?
CogCache is an optimized edge caching solution for the Generative Web that provides the most cost-effective, high-performance way to access Azure OpenAI with no capacity limits.
How does CogCache reduce costs?
CogCache can save up to 50% on LLM costs for similar, recurring prompts by serving content from cache, eliminating the need to consume tokens on previously generated content. It also reduces your carbon footprint, making AI operations more sustainable.
Additionally, if you have the plan that provides you access to the Azure OpenAI LLMs then you will get additional cost reductions through the discounts we offer for those LLMs, starting at 5%.
How does CogCache improve performance?
CogCache accelerates response times by up to 100x with its two-tiered system that uses high-speed in-memory hashing and vector search to radically reduce latency and lower token rendering costs.
What observability and control features are available?
CogCache provides a dashboard for teams to monitor the generative flow, set policies, and audit content with confidence. It offers complete transparency and auditability of all generated text, as well as the ability to edit and correct the cache entries.
What flexibility does CogCache provide?
CogCache offers complete flexibility with no monthly commitments required. You can pay only for what you need with monthly subscriptions.
