api7/aisix#1273 moved streamed responses to be counted in the request-family metrics, aisix_llm_requests_total included, when the stream ends instead of when the response head is written. The KEDA example in charts/aisix scales on sum(rate(aisix_llm_requests_total[2m])), so this adds a short note next to it (the keda.triggers comment in values.yaml and the "Autoscale on request load with KEDA" section of the README template): during a burst of long streams the signal lags by roughly one stream length, while the steady-state rate is unchanged. The example query itself stays as is.

README.md is regenerated with helm-docs. No chart version or appVersion bump; this is held to ship with the chart release that carries the aisix version containing #1273.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Documentation
    • Clarified that streamed requests are counted when each stream ends, so autoscaling signals may lag during bursts of long streams. The steady-state rate remains unaffected.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The KEDA example and documentation now state that aisix_llm_requests_total counts streamed requests when each stream ends. They describe the resulting lag during bursts of long streams and state that the steady-state rate is unaffected.

Changes

KEDA Metric Documentation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Document stream metric timing
charts/aisix/values.yaml, charts/aisix/README.md.gotmpl, charts/aisix/README.md
The KEDA example, generated documentation, and keda.triggers description state that streamed requests enter aisix_llm_requests_total when the stream ends. They describe burst-time lag of roughly one stream length and unchanged steady-state rate.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 171e6

The default chart image does not yet have the documented stream-metric timing, so operators may misread the KEDA burst signal. Remove the note until the chart selects a release containing the fix.

api7/aisix 1.5.0 release date PR 1273 stream request metrics

💡 Result:

- **AISIX 1.5.0 release date:** **September 29, 2026**, according to API7’s release announcement. ([api7.ai](https://api7.ai/blog?utm_source=openai))
- **PR #1273:** merged **October 9, 2026**—after the 1.5.0 release. It fixes streaming request metrics so they’re recorded when the stream ends, with the terminal status and full-stream duration. Abandoned streams are reported as `499`; upstream failures use their failure status, such as `502` or `504`. It also unifies error-class naming across access logs and usage events. (GitHub pull request 1273 in api7/aisix (link omitted to avoid creating a cross-reference))

So **PR #1273 was not included in the original 1.5.0 release**; the sources show the PR merged later, but don’t establish which subsequent release contains it. (GitHub pull request 1273 in api7/aisix (link omitted to avoid creating a cross-reference))

Remove this note until appVersion points to an AISIX release containing api7/aisix#1273.

The chart defaults to AISIX 1.5.0, which predates the metric change. The note describes completion-time counting that the default image does not provide. During long-stream bursts, operators can therefore misinterpret the KEDA rate signal.
