How do you configure OmniRoute for multi-provider failover?

[diegosouzapw]

I'd like to understand the best practices for setting up OmniRoute with multiple AI providers for automatic failover.

Questions:

1. What's the recommended way to configure priority between providers (e.g., OpenAI → Anthropic → Google)?
2. How does the health-check mechanism work to detect provider outages?
3. Are there any performance tips for reducing latency in the routing layer?

Any tips or examples from your setup would be greatly appreciated! 🚀

here are some suggestions :D
Priority Configuration:
List providers in your routing config by order (OpenAI first, then Anthropic, then Google). The router switches to the next if one fails.

Health Checks:
Automated checks (like ping or simple prompt) run every few seconds/minutes. If a provider doesn’t respond or errors, it’s temporarily skipped.

Latency Tips:
Cache health check results, keep connections warm, and avoid per-request checks. Only hit next provider if the first fails—don’t wait for long timeouts.

Practical Advice:
Monitor provider status, set reasonable failover thresholds, and observe usage/latency through metrics. Start with simple priority and only tweak as needed.
