## Choose when

### Choose tensorflow-triplet-loss if…

- License: tensorflow-triplet-loss is MIT, cognee is Apache-2.0.
- Tags unique to tensorflow-triplet-loss: embeddings, online-triplet-mining, tensorflow, triplet-loss.
- Also covers Model Training.

### Choose cognee if…

- License: cognee is Apache-2.0, tensorflow-triplet-loss is MIT.
- Tags unique to cognee: agent-memory, ai-agents, docker, knowledge-graph.
- Also covers AI Agents, Vector Databases.
- cognee ships Docker support for self-hosted deployment.
- - You are developing AI agents that require persistent long-term memory across different sessions.

## When NOT to use tensorflow-triplet-loss

- Last GitHub push was 2620 days ago (dormant maintenance, May 9, 2019). Validate activity before betting a new project on tensorflow-triplet-loss.
- Model Training: Try prompting and RAG first; fine-tuning is the answer to style/format, not missing knowledge.

## When NOT to use cognee

- - Your project does not require persistent memory storage, or your agents operate fully within short-lived sessions without the need for past context.
- - You are aiming for minimal setup overhead and prefer a cloud-based solution that requires less maintenance on your infrastructure side.
