Inside Dify: The Open-Source Engine for Visual Agentic Workflows

Dify has emerged as the leading open-source orchestration framework for production LLM stacks moving from basic chain scripts to autonomous multi-agent systems, according to the article. Dify couples a visual DAG execution engine with hybrid RAG pipelines and multi-model routing across DeepSeek, Qwen, and Claude, eliminating custom state machine overhead. Its modular architecture bridges low-code visual prototyping with enterprise LLMOps and self-hosted privacy.
