A local LLM runs inference on a chosen computer or server. Locating the model near data helps define processing paths, but OCR, embedding and log services still need separate review.
Putting it into practice
Model size is not the only criterion. Test Thai, document tables and real questions. Measure concurrency, memory, latency and operating cost. Plan model updates and rollback if quality falls.
Workflow
Do not buy hardware from model size alone. Prepare real Thai questions, typical long documents and concurrent usage. Measure latency, answer quality and memory under comparable conditions. Include power, updates and operator time before selecting infrastructure.
Before you begin
- Language quality
- Concurrent users
- Updates and rollback
Capabilities and deployment require project-level confirmation. No unsupported certification, ROI or customer claims are made.
Key takeaways
- Select permitted documents
- Assign data owners
- Prepare reference questions and answers
- Test denied access and deletion
- Measure quality, speed and cost before scaling
This is RAGBOX planning guidance, not an external certification standard. Each layer needs an owner, evidence and tests.
Frequently asked questions
Does data have to leave the network?
It depends on deployment and connected services. Map model, OCR, embedding, backup and log traffic before confirming the boundary.
Can an AI answer be trusted immediately?
Check the original, completeness and version, especially for legal, accounting and consequential decisions. Citations support review but do not guarantee accuracy.
How should a project begin?
Choose one defined use case, approved documents, owners and acceptance criteria. Test answer quality, permissions and cost with a small group before scaling.
