## Choose when

### Choose oasis if…

- License: oasis is Apache-2.0, autogen is CC-BY-4.0.
- Pricing: The project is open-source and freely available for download and use; however, there might be associated costs with cloud services or API calls if utilized..
- Requirements: Min 16 GB RAM.
- Graph edge: oasis is a typed related of autogen - see the relationship row above.
- Tags unique to oasis: deep-learning, ai-societies, large-language-models, natural-language-processing.
- Also covers Model Training.
- You need scalable simulations involving up to a million users to study information spread in large-scale networks.

### Choose autogen if…

- License: autogen is CC-BY-4.0, oasis is Apache-2.0.
- Requirements: AutoGen requires Python 3.10 or later..
- Graph edge: autogen is a typed related of oasis - see the relationship row above.
- Tags unique to autogen: autogen, agents, ai, agentic.
- Also covers LLM Frameworks.
- You should use AutoGen if you have an existing project built on it and desire to maintain its current functionality without introducing advanced enterprise features or extensive new capabilities.

## When NOT to use oasis

- Your project requires simulation of fewer than 1,000 agents because OASIS is optimized for large-scale simulations with up to one million agents.
- If your focus is on platforms that do not resemble Twitter or Reddit in terms of user interaction patterns, as OASIS's environments are specifically adapted for these types of social dynamics.

## When NOT to use autogen

- Do not use AutoGen if you are planning to build a production-ready application that requires long-term support, enterprise-grade orchestration features, or multi-provider model support.
- Avoid using this tool if your project needs future-proof development with new and continuous enhancements as the framework is in maintenance mode.
