MindsDB

MindsDB connects data sources and LLMs for AI automation. Portkey adds:

1600+ LLMs — Access any provider through MindsDB
Observability — Track costs, latency, and usage
Reliability — Caching, routing, guardrails via Configs

Prerequisites

Install MindsDB via Docker or Docker Desktop
Install Portkey dependencies per MindsDB instructions
Get your Portkey API key

Setup

Create AI Engine

CREATE ML_ENGINE portkey_engine
FROM portkey
USING
    portkey_api_key = 'PORTKEY_API_KEY',
    config = 'pc-your-config-id';

CREATE ML_ENGINE portkey_engine
FROM portkey
USING
    portkey_api_key = 'PORTKEY_API_KEY',
    provider = '@openai-prod';

Use Configs to add guardrails, caching, conditional routing, and more.

Create Model

CREATE MODEL portkey_model
PREDICT answer
USING
    engine = 'portkey_engine',
    temperature = 0.2;

Query

SELECT question, answer
FROM portkey_model
WHERE question = 'Where is Stockholm located?';
