 When a request is made to an OpenAI compatible endpoint, lama-swap will extract the `model` value and load the appropriate server configuration to serve it. If the wrong upstream server is running, it will be replaced with the correct one. This is where the "swap" part comes in. The upstream server is automatically swapped to the correct one to serve the request.
