Choose graphrag-rs if…
- graphrag-rs is primarily Rust; moby is Go.
- License: graphrag-rs is MIT, moby is Apache-2.0.
- Tags unique to graphrag-rs: graphrag, embeddings, llm, ai.
- Also covers Vector Databases.
When NOT to use graphrag-rs
- Vector Databases: Don't reach for a dedicated vector DB under ~100k vectors; pgvector on your existing Postgres is simpler to operate.
- LLM Frameworks: Avoid a framework for a single prompt-and-retrieve call; the abstraction can cost more than it saves.
- Inference & Serving: Self-hosting rarely beats a hosted API on cost until you have steady, high-volume traffic.
Choose moby if…
- moby is primarily Go; graphrag-rs is Rust.
- License: moby is Apache-2.0, graphrag-rs is MIT.
- Tags unique to moby: go, docker, golang, containers.
- Also covers Developer Tools.
- moby ships Docker support for self-hosted deployment.
When NOT to use moby
- LLM Frameworks: Avoid a framework for a single prompt-and-retrieve call; the abstraction can cost more than it saves.
- Developer Tools: A gateway is overkill when you're pinned to a single provider and model.
- Inference & Serving: Self-hosting rarely beats a hosted API on cost until you have steady, high-volume traffic.
