- When you want to deploy production-ready AI agents using a self-hosted platform that supports both LangGraph and Google ADK.
When NOT to use idun-agent-platform
- When vendor lock-in is not an issue, because idun-agent-platform emphasizes being self-hosted with no dependency on external vendors.
- If your project does not need or cannot accommodate the GPL-3.0 license requirement for open-source projects that use this platform.
- For simple agent deployments without a need for advanced features like AG-UI copilotkit API, detailed guardrails, or out-of-the-box observability features.
Choose agent-framework if…
- License: agent-framework is MIT, idun-agent-platform is GPL-3.0.
- Requirements: Python version 3.6 or newer is required for Python installations.; The .NET Core SDK must be installed for utilizing the .NET packages..
- Tags unique to agent-framework: agent-framework, multi-agent, orchestration, workflows.
- Also covers Developer Tools.
- Choose agent-framework if your project requires support for both Python and .NET, allowing you to develop across different ecosystems.
When NOT to use agent-framework
- Avoid using the agent-framework if your team does not have proficiency in either Python or.NET, as this may cause difficulties in leveraging its features effectively.
- Do not opt for agent-framework if you only need lightweight support for AI agents without a comprehensive orchestration and deployment framework.
