Question 1

What hardware do I need?

Accepted Answer

For Llama 4 70B or Mistral Large, you'll need a server with at least one NVIDIA A100 (80GB) or H100. For smaller models, an RTX 4090 or A10G works well.

Question 2

How do open-source models compare to GPT-5 or Claude?

Accepted Answer

Llama 4 and DeepSeek V4 are now competitive with GPT-5 for most business tasks. Fine-tuning on your data often makes them outperform commercial alternatives.

Question 3

Can I start with cloud and move to on-prem later?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. We often start with private cloud GPU deployment to prove value, then migrate to on-premises hardware once ROI is validated.

Question 4

Is open-source AI really secure?

Accepted Answer

More secure than cloud AI in many ways—your data never leaves your network. We implement enterprise security: encrypted storage, audit logging, access controls, and network isolation.
