A year ago open weights were a gamble; today they are a real production option. I review what has worked, what has not, and how Llama, DeepSeek, Qwen, and Mistral are fitting into enterprise architectures that used to depend on closed APIs.

The criteria that actually decide are commercial licence, available hardware, language support, and your own evaluation on real use cases, not just the trendy benchmark.
