For a defense project we're working on, we basically have a hard requirement to use european cloud provider + european llm
We cannot use open source LLMs on-prem, I asked. So that's basically a hard requirement to use mistral, even though Chinese models are strictly better on every dimension.
for example, I am scraping website A, getting 500+ pdf files; then they change their layout, the ETL breaks, we autoregenerate it with Claude, but then we get only 450 PDFs. The orchestrator still marks it as a successful run, but we get only part of the data.
Or: the ETL for website B breaks. We use our agentic solution, we successfully repair it, and it completes without errors, but we start missing a few fields that were moved in another sub-page.
