The article discusses when to migrate from Ollama to vLLM for local LLM server management. Ollama is praised for its ease of use and convenience in running local models, but vLLM offers greater control over batching, memory management, concurrency, and distributed inference, making it suitable for shared inference services under load. Key indicators for migration include unstable latency with multiple users and low GPU utilization despite queued requests, as vLLM's continuous batching and PagedAttention are designed to optimize throughput and resource usage under higher concurrency.
