Decision brief
Minima is an on-premises conversational RAG tool with flexible deployment options through Docker-compose configurations, catering to fully local setups (Ollama), custom LLMs, ChatGPT integration, and MCP usage.
Good fit when
- - Use Minima for full local control over sensitive data in high-security environments where on-premises deployments are essential.
- - Opt for Minima if you aim to utilize a custom Language Model (LLM) with an OpenAI-compatible API without the reranking step, enhancing performance for large-scale data retrieval.
Avoid when
- - Avoid using Minima if your organization requires strict adherence to a cloud-only deployment strategy.
- - Do not choose Minima if you prefer tools that handle local file storage and security entirely through cloud services rather than on-premises configurations.
