American tech company Microsoft recently announced an update to its Azure AI Studio platform. This new platform will be called Microsoft Azure AI Foundry, and the company is looking to expand its AI strategies for developers.
The company states in a blog post about this new development, “Azure AI Foundry is a trusted platform that empowers developers to drive innovation and shape the future with AI in a safe, secure, and responsible way.”
Microsoft introduced Azure AI studios in November 2023 to offer developers a wide range of AI solutions. The services included AI-powered applications to help developers build their own generative AI solutions. According to Microsoft, Azure AI Foundry can “facilitate scalability for transforming proof of concepts into full-fledged production applications.” It also allows users to monitor and upgrade the content they build continuously.

“AI agents have huge potential to autonomously perform routine tasks, boosting productivity and efficiency, all while keeping you at the center,” said Jessica Hawk, Microsoft’s corporate vice president of data, AI, and digital applications.
Microsoft is not the only company offering access to multiple AI tools on a single platform. Salesforce, another cloud-based American software company, introduced the Agentforce platform in September. Amazon also hosts its many AI solutions under the Amazon Web Service umbrella.
The Azure AI Foundry is currently free to use and explore. The pricing is restricted to the deployment level.
