Azure AI Foundry Survival Guide
summary
Azure AI Foundry combines generative models, vision, speech, document extraction and avatar/video tools into one portal; the model catalog lists about 11,000 models versus ~40 on the OpenAI-only service, deployments take 5–10 minute deploy, and capacity limits (token throughput ~100,000/min per subscription) and region choice matter—Sweden Central is recommended for testing. Pricing shows roughly €0.40 per million tokens, fine‑tuning costs order €10+/hour, and SDKs and REST endpoints (Java, Python, .NET) are provided.
