Prompt Caching: Overriding Tokenization for Faster and More Cost-Effective AI

As Large Language Models (LLMs) become increasingly integrated into enterprise applications, optimizing response time and reducing operational costs have become critical priorities. One of the most effective techniques for achieving both is Prompt Caching. Instead of processing identical prompt segments repeatedly, prompt caching allows AI systems to reuse previously computed prompt representations, minimizing redundant computation. While tokenization converts text into tokens that the model und
