Self Hosted vs Roboflow Hosted

Community Help

Hi,

We are running a fine tuned model that we trained on Roboflow. We have no issues open sourcing the model and data.

However, I want to know the difference between self hosting it vs Roboflow hosting it. I understand that the free tier has 10,000 calls per month. Does this include calls from both the ‘self hosted’ deployment as well as the roboflow hosted one? Is the use case for self hosted edge devices with no internet, reducing latency, data privacy etc?

If we self host the roboflow model on our cloud instance, what is the use case here? will we be incurring a cloud bill for no reason?

Hi @Abhishek - deployments are charged based on either the number of inferences run (if you are running your model on images) or the minutes of video stream processed (if you are running your model on video).

The limit and overage fees apply to both our Roboflow-hosted as well as self-hosted deployments.

Let me know if I can help with anything else!
Jacob
