Good fit when
- - You need to deploy and operationalize your own locally-run models without relying on cloud APIs.
- - Your application requires a high degree of customization beyond what existing cloud services offer.
Avoid when
- - You prefer simplicity and ease-of-use over full control; PrivateGPT requires more setup than using direct cloud-based AI services.
- - Your project does not involve running models locally but strictly relies on public cloud resources for inference server operations.
- Requirements:
- Min 8 GB RAM; Requires Docker
