Explore the power of agentic frameworks to streamline healthcare operations. With healthcare agent orchestrator, you can customize intelligent agents, integrate them with private datasets and public sources, and deploy them seamlessly into Microsoft 365 tools like Teams and Word. Experience the synergy of healthcare-specific agents enhanced by general reasoning models and multimodal healthcare foundation models—enabling them to tackle sophisticated clinical tasks with precision and efficiency.

In this hands-on lab, you'll build an advanced agent inspired by AgentWise, our internal learning assistant designed to help developers understand types of ways for building agents for Microsoft 365 Copilot. Using Copilot Studio, you’ll architect a multi-layered agent that adapts to user goals, personalizes guidance based on persona, and makes intelligent decisions using structured flows and real-time data. Along the way, you’ll learn how to combine retrieval and dynamic logic to go beyond Q&A.

This lab provides a comprehensive overview of building, deploying, and securing AI agents. We will start by creating a single agent with Azure Functions and Foundry Agent Service in Microsoft Foundry, then enhance it with Model Context Protocol (MCP) and add data grounding with Azure Cosmos DB. You will also combine the single agents to form a multi-agent system. You will then deploy, manage and secure the application on a Flex Consumption plan.

In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn to build domain-specific AI agents with Foundry Agent Service. Starting from a simple agent, you’ll add system prompts, custom instructions, and knowledge with RAG. You’ll extend it with tool calling (like a pizza calculator) and connect external services via MCP for live menu and order handling. By the end, you’ll have a working Contoso PizzaBot that can answer questions, recommend pizzas, and manage orders.

Join us for a hands-on workshop showcasing the latest Azure SQL innovations to supercharge your applications. Learn how to harness generative AI alongside Azure SQL Database to elevate your data strategies with AI concepts like language models, prompt engineering, Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) and streamline with Microsoft Copilot. Whether you're a developer, architect, or IT professional, this workshop is your ticket to mastering SQL and AI to stay ahead in the data-driven landscape.
