In this post we explore the evolution from Azure IoT Operations Data Processor Pipelines to Dataflows, why we adopted a hybrid strategy with custom Rust pods, and the architectural lessons we learned building event detection systems at the edge.
Agentic systems have some discretion in the parameters they sent to tooling, but there are cases, such as experimentation, when you need 100% adherence to a set of parameters.
How we built a minimal, scalable GitOps workflow for edge applications using Azure IoT Operations, Azure DevOps, and a multi-repo strategy. Includes pipeline templates and scripts for real-world deployments.
A robust agent onboarding process is the backbone of scalable, reliable multi-agent AI systems—enforcing uniqueness, rigorous evaluation, and responsible AI practices at every step.
This blog post shares real-world experiences from Microsoft's ISE team using GitHub Copilot to accelerate AI development workflows, demonstrating how AI tools can significantly speed up tasks like creating documentation, class diagrams, data visualizations, and demo scripts when used by experienced developers.
Using AI‑generated tools like Stagehand with Microsoft's Playwright helps ensure a smooth user experience during modernization efforts such as Hyper Velocity Engineering and monolith-to-microservices migrations.
This blog outlines best practices for optimizing Speech-to-Text (STT), Text-to-Speech (TTS), and Custom Keyword Recognition in Azure Speech Services, helping developers build more accurate and responsive voice-enabled applications.
