Choose moby if…

- moby ships Docker support for self-hosted deployment.
When NOT to use moby

- Inference & Serving: Self-hosting rarely beats a hosted API on cost until you have steady, high-volume traffic.
- LLM Frameworks: Avoid a framework for a single prompt-and-retrieve call; the abstraction can cost more than it saves.
Choose open-codesign if…
