Truveta, a health provider-led data platform, is hiring a Senior Machine Learning Engineer in Seattle, WA, offering $175k–200k/yr, to develop adaptive agentic systems and fine-tuned foundation models …
Microsoft has launched the Azure SQL Database Foundations series, four videos covering Hyperscale database setup, migration, optimization, and AI integration, each with accompanying GitHub repos. The …
A developer's analysis of RAG retrieval architectures shows that vector-only search fails on exact-match queries like product codes and error numbers, and that hybrid search combining lexical and vect…
Towards Data Science published a vendor-neutral blueprint for building a persistent knowledge layer that refuses to guess, addressing the limitation that RAG retrieves but never remembers. The article…
Microsoft Foundry, Azure AI Search, and Azure Cosmos DB are combined to build a grounded search agent that uses function calling to route between unstructured document retrieval and structured data qu…
A coalition of 25 tech companies led by Nvidia, Microsoft, and Meta warned against overregulating open-weight AI models, exposing a divide with proprietary model companies like OpenAI and Anthropic. M…
Microsoft Azure provides a robust foundation for building production-ready Agentic RAG systems, which dynamically plan, retrieve, reason, and execute tasks to handle complex enterprise workflows, acco…
Microsoft is helping three nonprofits—Animal Protection Denmark, Answer ALS, and Everything Suarve—use AI to extend their impact. Animal Protection Denmark uses AI to forecast foster home demand durin…
Microsoft Foundry's new Foundry IQ agentic retrieval layer, built on Azure AI Search, treats retrieval as a reasoning task rather than a single keyword or vector lookup. A developer built a production…
Agentic AI marks a fundamental shift from traditional automation that follows instructions to systems that reason, choose, and act autonomously. Unlike rule-based bots that break when environments cha…
A developer outlines three materialized view patterns for SQL Server/Azure SQL and .NET: indexed views, custom read model tables, and precomputed page caches. The post explains how each pattern improv…
An Azure AI agent passed all functional, retrieval, and safety tests but still requires human approval before executing actions. The developer refused full autonomy because enterprise accountability m…
A developer building on the Microsoft Agent Framework describes how to connect agents to private knowledge using RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation). The approach exposes retrieval as a controlled to…
Based on the article, the local implementation of this Enterprise RAG system is fully functional, featuring pre-retrieval access control, citation-backed answers, and a specialized evaluation set, all…
