@bojtospeter Based on our conversation, my understanding is that we want to:

  1. Keep AWS Bedrock as the cloud-based LLM model linked to the SaaS experience.
  2. Add content explaining how to use a local LLM model (e.g., Ollama, following the blog) for the Self-Managed experience.

That is, AWS for SaaS and Ollama for Self-Managed? Is this correct?

@afgambin
AWS bedrock (or other cloud based LLM provider) can be used for SaaS and Self-managed as well.
local LLM can be used only for Self-managed

So self-managed users have a bit more flexibility in this sense.

@bojtospeter I added the tabs for SaaS vs. Self-Managed, as discussed, and left one pending question before proceeding. Have a look whenever you can. Preview here.

Also, do we have a link to the new blog? Is it already published? I only have the link to the Gdoc.

This cleanup really helps to reduce noise around SaaS / SM

Please change the documentation for 8.8 as well, since it's applicable to 8.8 too.

@bojtospeter Thanks for the review! Changes have been backported. For the subsequent PR: adding instructions on how to set up the local LLM, please share the link to the published blog when it’s available.

Before merging this, I’d love to hear from @mesellings, who mentioned during a meeting that there could be an issue with using tabs in this case.

@afgambin the tabs look fine in this - the issue is around using tabs for larger blocks of documentation (including headings within) due to a Docusaurus bug (example issue) and also not the right UX experience (we shouldn't hide important docs), so this use case is fine - only one non-blocking comment, otherwise lgtm! 🚀
