The Case for Air-Gapped AI: Running Llama-3 on Local Silicon for MEP Firms

The Case for Air-Gapped AI

For high-stakes engineering firms, the cloud isn't just a cost—it's a risk. The ability to run state-of-the-art models like Llama-3 on local servers (on-premise or private cloud) is no longer a luxury; it's a strategic necessity for data sovereignty.

This technical brief outlines the infrastructure required to deploy a Sovereign Knowledge Engine without a single packet leaving your secure network. We cover GPU requirements, quantization strategies, and the security protocols used by leading MEP firms to protect their intellectual property.

Full technical brief coming soon. This is part of our Sovereign Infrastructure roadmap.
