Microsoft Foundry is the unified “AI app and agent factory” for enterprises. At Ignite, Foundry launches a simplified developer experience, a comprehensive agent framework for multi-agentic apps, multi-source knowledge base creation, and new levels of observability and control. Teams move seamlessly from idea to production, with powerful workflow automation, secure deployment, and integrated safety controls. The new portal, expanded model catalog, and new Foundry Control Plane make it easy to build, evaluate, and operate agents at scale, grounded in enterprise data, with governance and compliance by default.
