Self-Hosting LLMs for Private Data: Challenges, Tradeoffs, and Why RAG Might Be the Answer

As large language models (LLMs) gain prominence, industries dealing with sensitive data—such as healthcare, finance, and legal—face a critical question: How can they leverage LLMs while ensuring privacy? Two common approaches, fine-tuning and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), come with distinct advantages and challenges, particularly when using proprietary models versus self-hosted solutions. This blog post explores these challenges, tradeoffs, and …
