Open‑Source vs Proprietary — Practical Take
Choose the approach that aligns with your enterprise constraints and strategic objectives
LangGraph, n8n
Advantages
Orchestrate across Azure & GCP; self‑host to keep data in VPC; avoid lock‑in; pair with LangSmith for evals/tracing.
Considerations
You own ops and SLAs when self‑hosting; budget for SRE/observability.
Azure Foundry • Vertex AI
Advantages
Native evals/observability, agent runtimes, identity, and governance inside each cloud; fastest path for in‑ecosystem clients.
Considerations
Cross‑cloud portability lower than framework‑agnostic; pricing & quotas apply.
