Articles on data platforms, applications, AI and cloud, explaining technical mechanisms and architecture decisions.

Designing private AI for law firms around data access and verification
Confidentiality, permissions and verification guide the architecture. A server is one implementation option within that assessment.

Evaluating open-weight model quality, availability and operating cost
Public rankings identify candidates. Selection depends on the licence, performance on the task and the resources required to operate the model.

Three configurations for sizing local AI
Memory, throughput and concurrent demand guide the hardware choice. Three profiles help prepare a trial and compare total operating cost.

Choosing a Swiss or European cloud alternative around actual use
Location, functions and exit conditions must address the same need. Comparing services by use helps prepare a gradual migration.

Deploying internal AI with open models and suitable infrastructure
Required quality, data constraints and operating capacity determine the deployment model. The model and its environment need to be evaluated together.
