AI Agents in Action: Enhancing Applications with Azure AI Services
2025TL; DR
With the rapid advancements in AI technology, AI agents are becoming increasingly integral to our daily lives, enhancing everything from personal assistants to business applications. You might be wondering how to get started making the most of the opportunity this presents in your applications. In this session, we will:
• Give an introduction to AI, generative AI, agents, and assistants to help you cut through the confusion
• Discuss architecture design patterns using Azure services so you know which work best for your scenario
• Do a deep dive on agents and frameworks, and give you inspiration on how agents can enhance your applications and differentiate user experience
We will bring all of these concepts together in a demo of a copilot app for an online store using Azure Cosmos DB for NoSQL, C#, and Semantic Kernel so that you have the understanding you need to start bringing AI agents into your applications.

3 things you'll get out of this session
1. An understanding of the key features of AI technologies and tools
2. Knowing which solution architectures are most relevant to their scenarios and which tools to use
3. Having seen a demo, leave with a good sense of the types of agents that they can add to their applications and how to go about incorporating them
