Episode notes
From Running Models To Private Access
- Amazee shifted from running models to enabling private, easier access to foundation models integrated with Drupal.
- Running large models on-premise proved expensive and customers preferred managed private access.
Don’t Send Sensitive Data To Public LLMs
- Avoid sending sensitive or identifiable data to public LLM services because providers may store data and link it to identities.
- Protect privacy by choosing providers that guarantee data residency and minimal prompt logging.
Enforce Data Residency And Minimal Logging
- Use open source tooling and explicit region controls to verify and protect data handling with your AI provider.
- Configure hosting region and minimal prompt logging to enforce data residency and reduce exposure.
