Book Description
Unlock the full potential of AI with Microsoft Foundry, Microsoft's unified platform for building, orchestrating, and operating AI solutions at scale. This hands-on guide walks you through the full AI application lifecycle, from data preparation and model selection to deployment, monitoring, and continuous evaluation. Written by Eduardo Sojo, a former Microsoft consultant and current solutions architect at Databricks with over 15 years of experience, the book focuses on practical implementation using the latest Microsoft Foundry portal. You'll learn to design intelligent workflows, build agents, and apply guardrails to ensure safe, reliable AI behavior in real-world scenarios. Rather than focusing only on models, the book shows how to connect workflows, agents, evaluations, and observability so solutions are not just functional, but production-ready. You'll explore real-world use cases such as building copilots, integrating external systems like Databricks, and creating multi-agent architectures that work with enterprise data. By the end, you'll be able to design, build, and operate secure, scalable, intelligent AI solutions using Microsoft Foundry.
