## Choose when

### Choose seldon-core if…

- seldon-core is primarily Go; Awesome-LLMOps is Shell.
- License: seldon-core is Other, Awesome-LLMOps is CC0-1.0.
- Requirements: Requires Docker; Requires Docker for deployment environments.
- Tags unique to seldon-core: aiops, deployment, kubernetes, machine-learning-operations.
- If you are deploying and serving ML models on Kubernetes clusters, seldon-core provides specialized capabilities within its MLOps framework to facilitate this.

### Choose Awesome-LLMOps if…

- Awesome-LLMOps is primarily Shell; seldon-core is Go.
- License: Awesome-LLMOps is CC0-1.0, seldon-core is Other.
- Tags unique to Awesome-LLMOps: ai-development-tools, awesome-list, llmops.
- Also covers Computer Vision, Data & Retrieval, Evaluation & Observability, LLM Frameworks, Model Training, Speech & Audio.
- - When you need a comprehensive directory of tools specifically focused on LLM development, training, fine-tuning, and management.

## When NOT to use seldon-core

- Consider alternatives if you are not running your infrastructure on Kubernetes, since seldon-core is optimized for Kubernetes environments.
- If compatibility or licensing concerns arise due to the Business Source License under which Seldon is distributed, explore other frameworks with more permissive licenses.

## When NOT to use Awesome-LLMOps

- - When you are looking for a hands-on platform or framework for developing and deploying models rather than just a resource list.
- - If your focus is on general artificial intelligence development that includes areas beyond LLMOps like image processing, robotics, or federated learning without the need for LLM-specific resources.
