 Common questions and their answers!
 
-## Do I need to use LangChain in order to use LangGraph?
+## Do I need to use LangChain to use LangGraph? What’s the difference?
 
-No! LangGraph is a general-purpose framework - the nodes and edges are nothing more than Python functions. You can use LangChain, raw HTTP requests, or even other frameworks inside these nodes and edges.
+No. LangGraph is an orchestration framework for complex agentic systems and is more low-level and controllable than LangChain agents. LangChain provides a standard interface to interact with models and other components, useful for straight-forward chains and retrieval flows.
+
+## How is LangGraph different from other agent frameworks?
+
+Other agentic frameworks can work for simple, generic tasks but fall short for complex tasks bespoke to a company’s needs. LangGraph provides a more expressive framework to handle companies’ unique tasks without restricting users to a single black-box cognitive architecture.
+
+## Does LangGraph impact the performance of my app?
+
+LangGraph will not add any overhead to your code and is specifically designed with streaming workflows in mind.
+
+## Is LangGraph open source? Is it free?
+
+Yes. LangGraph is an MIT-licensed open-source library and is free to use.
+
+## How are LangGraph and LangGraph Platform different?
+
+LangGraph is a stateful, orchestration framework that brings added control to agent workflows. LangGraph Platform is a service for deploying and scaling LangGraph applications, with an opinionated API for building agent UXs, plus an integrated developer studio.

+| Checkpointer | Community contributed | Supported out-of-the-box |
+| Persistence Layer | Self-managed | Managed Postgres with efficient storage |
+| Deployment | Self-managed | • Cloud SaaS <br> • Free self-hosted <br> • Enterprise (BYOC or paid self-hosted) |
+| Scalability | Self-managed | Auto-scaling of task queues and servers |
+| Fault-tolerance | Self-managed | Automated retries |
+| Concurrency Control | Simple threading | Supports double-texting |
+| Scheduling | None | Cron scheduling |

+
+## What are my deployment options for LangGraph Platform?
+
+We currently have the following deployment options for LangGraph applications:
+
+- [‍Self-Hosted Lite](./deployment_options.md#self-hosted-lite): A free (up to 1M nodes executed), limited version of LangGraph Platform that you can run locally or in a self-hosted manner. This version requires a LangSmith API key and logs all usage to LangSmith. Fewer features are available than in paid plans.
+- [Cloud SaaS](./deployment_options.md#cloud-saas): Fully managed and hosted as part of LangSmith, with automatic updates and zero maintenance.
+- [‍Bring Your Own Cloud (BYOC)](./deployment_options.md#bring-your-own-cloud): Deploy LangGraph Platform within your VPC, provisioned and run as a service. Keep data in your environment while outsourcing the management of the service.
+- [Self-Hosted Enterprise](./deployment_options.md#self-hosted-enterprise): Deploy LangGraph entirely on your own infrastructure.
+
+## Is LangGraph Platform open source?
+
+No. LangGraph Platform is proprietary software.
+
+There is a free, self-hosted version of LangGraph Platform with access to basic features. The Cloud SaaS deployment option is free while in beta, but will eventually be a paid service. We will always give ample notice before charging for a service and reward our early adopters with preferential pricing. The Bring Your Own Cloud (BYOC) and Self-Hosted Enterprise options are also paid services. [Contact our sales team](https://www.langchain.com/contact-sales) to learn more.
