Configure streaming for LLM responses and other traffic

Configure streaming for LLM responses and other traffic

You can now create API Gateway gateways that stream requests and responses instead of buffering them. This Public Preview feature supports incremental response delivery over HTTP/2 or HTTP/1.1 chunked transfer encoding, Server-Sent Events (SSE), WebSockets, and gRPC bidirectional streaming. A common use is streaming token-by-token responses from a large language model (LLM).

To enable streaming, create a gateway with the --enable-streaming flag. The streaming mode is fixed when you create the gateway and can't be changed later.
