Validate activity before betting a new project on text2vec. - Data & Retrieval: Skip a heavy ingestion framework when your corpus is small and static; a script plus the embedding API is enough. - Model Training: Try prompting and RAG first; fine-tuning is the answer to style/format, not missing knowledge. ## When NOT to use awesome-mlops - Last GitHub push was 597 days ago (dormant maintenance, Nov 21, 2024). Validate activity before betting a new project on awesome-mlops. - Inference & Serving: Self-hosting rarely beats a hosted API on cost until you have steady, high-volume traffic. - Model Training: Try prompting and RAG first; fine-tuning is the answer to style/format, not missing knowledge. - Vector Databases: Don't reach for a dedicated vector DB under ~100k vectors; pgvector on your existing Postgres is simpler to operate. ## Common questions ### What is the difference between text2vec and awesome-mlops? text2vec: 文本向量表征工具，实现多种文本表征和相似度计算模型. awesome-mlops: A curated list of references for MLOps.
