Score breakdown
Popularity is tracked separately. Support, ads, sponsorships, and tips never affect these signals.
Why it matters
Useful for platform engineers, SREs, and Kubernetes operators who already run Envoy Gateway, because Envoy AI Gateway reuses the existing Envoy data plane for LLM routing and governance, which means a single control plane can govern both traditional microservice traffic and LLM-backed traffic without running a second proxy stack.

Risk explanation
It governs LLM traffic on the Envoy data plane, so audit which model providers are routed through the gateway, lock down credentials for upstream LLM APIs, and validate rate-limit and failover behavior before pointing production traffic at it.
