When NOT to use rag_api

Constraint-first guidance from category fit and live maintenance signals - not marketing copy.

  • Avoid using if your project cannot leverage PostgreSQL/pgvector due to license or compatibility constraints.
  • Not recommended for scenarios where high-level orchestration of multiple APIs and services is necessary without a direct need for FastAPI's simplicity.
