I have built a Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) solution using the Azure AI Search SDK and Azure OpenAI SDK. There is a lot to know about not only coding, configuring, and managing those components, but how they must be tuned, fed, and optimized are aspects which we are still in a state of learning and […]

I recently wrote this article Integrate custom tools into an AI Agent which illustrates how to configure tools and an AI Agent to call those tools. In that article there was no Model Context Protocol (MCP) capability utilized. MCP provides the following benefits when compared to integrating custom tools directly from code. Dynamic tool discovery […]

Before learning what I discovered while integrating tools into an AI Agent, I was a bit perplexed regarding how the LLM was able to determine which tool to use and even which tools are available for use. Well, how it works is not a mystery, it is clearly described in the code. In this post […]

As of writing this article the Azure SRE Agent is in preview release. After provisioning an Azure SRE Agent a common activity is to configure the Agent to monitor and act upon an alert. The Azure SRE Agent currently supports 3 incident platforms: Azure Monitor, PagerDuty, and ServiceNow, as shown in Figure 1. Figure 1, […]

A very critical part of implementing a Generative AI solution that utilizes Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) like Microsoft Copilot is the discovery of the most relevant grounding documents. These most relevant grounding documents are then passed to the LLM for use in generating the NLP response. For example, if you want to find out how […]

If you have not read or heard about Microsoft Copilot read more about it here. In summary it is a natural language generative AI application that can respond to questions using your proprietary/private data in sentences and paragraphs instead of links. It does much more than that, read the article if you want to find […]
