## Choose when

### Choose all-in-rag if…

- all-in-rag is primarily Python; RAG_Techniques is Jupyter Notebook.
- Tags unique to all-in-rag: embedding, langchain, milvus, multimodal.
- - When you want a comprehensive resource that covers both the theoretical foundations and practical application of RAG.

### Choose RAG_Techniques if…

- RAG_Techniques is primarily Jupyter Notebook; all-in-rag is Python.
- Pricing: Free to use for non-commercial purposes..
- Requirements: Min 8 GB RAM; Requires a Python environment and Jupyter Notebook for running the tutorials..
- Tags unique to RAG_Techniques: embeddings, information retrieval, machine-learning, natural language processing.
- Also covers Model Training.
- When you need comprehensive tutorials on RAG techniques, including embeddings and semantic search, with practical examples in Jupyter Notebooks.

## When NOT to use all-in-rag

- - Avoid if you are looking for a solution that only focuses on theoretical aspects without practical implementation guidance.
- - If your project does not require multi-modal support or is solely focused on text-based applications, more specialized tools might provide better optimization.
- - Not suitable if you're seeking quick prototyping or a light-weight framework; all-in-rag emphasizes comprehensive learning and production-ready practices.

## When NOT to use RAG_Techniques

- If you are looking for a repository that focuses on a broader range of AI techniques beyond RAG, as RAG_Techniques is specialized in Retrieval-Augmented Generation.
- If you require a repository that supports commercial use, as RAG_Techniques is licensed under a custom non-commercial license.
