ContinuityBench: A Benchmark and Systems Study of Stateful Failover in Multi-Provider LLM Routing

In production large language model (LLM) deployments, high API availability guarantees do not equate to conversational continuity. When a primary provider experiences an outage or strict rate-limiting, naive stateless failover mechanisms successfully maintain uptime but silently discard conversation history, severely disrupting the user experience. To rigorously quantify and resolve this failure mode, we introduce two novel metrics: Continuity Preservation Rate (CPR) and Continuity Latency…
