TBW / AI solutions

Local AI

Run selected inference workloads near your data and users.

Discuss your architecture

Local AI: Workload to Model and quantization to VRAM and RAM to Local inference

The business problem

Local hardware is not automatically cheaper, faster or safer; capacity and operational ownership matter.

Unclear data and model boundaries
Disconnected systems and ownership
Production controls added too late

Designed around your environment, requirements and operating constraints.

Workstation or server inference architecture

Designed around your environment, requirements and operating constraints.

Deployment, monitoring and update practices

Designed around your environment, requirements and operating constraints.

Architecture and workflow

Local AI workflow: Workload to Model and quantization to VRAM and RAM to Local inference

  1. Workload
  2. Model and quantization
  3. VRAM and RAM
  4. Local inference
  5. Validation
  6. Operations

Architecture is selected after reviewing the actual data, identity, operations and integration boundaries. See enterprise integration →

A representative workflow

An engineer checks model size, context length and concurrent users before selecting a workstation or server class. This illustration describes a design pattern, not a deployed customer case study.

Implementation methodology

  1. Discover requirements
  2. Assess data and access
  3. Architect and prototype
  4. Integrate and secure
  5. Validate and operate

Security and governance

Classify data; authenticate users; apply least-privilege model and tool access; review retention and residency; test prompt injection and unsafe retrieval; log meaningful decisions; require human approval for sensitive actions. The controls and assurance required depend on your environment.

Frequently asked questions

How much GPU memory is required?

It varies with model weights, quantization, context, concurrency and serving configuration. Size against a representative workload, not an unsupported universal figure.

How are access and data boundaries defined?

Start with a data inventory, named owners and role-based permissions. Test the actual flow before production and revisit access as systems change.

What is the next step?

Bring a bounded use case, constraints and existing architecture to a consultation. No deployment or result is assumed before assessment.

Plan the next architecture decision

Discuss the workload, data boundaries, integrations and operational ownership with TBW.
