Description

When designing and customizing AI apps and agents, you can now use the data stored in your Azure Cosmos DB accounts to power AI solutions built in Azure AI Foundry. 

 

Azure Cosmos DB is the first Azure database able to power Azure AI Foundry agents and models in Azure AI Foundry with real-time, operational data. You can connect and access your Azure Cosmos DB data using the Azure AI Foundry portal or natively in application code with the Azure AI Foundry SDK. 

 

In addition to building AI agents in Azure AI Foundry, you can now securely store and manage the conversation threads between users and AI agents in your Azure Cosmos DB accounts, using the Azure AI Foundry SDK.  With this feature, agents can recall the content of previous conversations and messages and pick up conversations where they left off. 

 

These capabilities are reliable, fast, and cost-effective with Azure Cosmos DB, and now generally available.
