General manager Maria Bledsoe looked into ways to scale AI in the cloud. Microsoft recently released a new technical guide for cloud migrations. 

According to Bledsoe, one of the biggest challenges in AI projects is disconnected or outdated data. Retrieval-augmented generation can help to automate live data retrieval and make more informed decisions. 

“Cloud-based RAG apps help businesses move beyond static AI by enabling more adaptive, intelligent solutions. When RAG runs in the cloud, enterprises can benefit from reduced latency, high-speed data transfers, built-in security controls, and simplified data governance,” she wrote.

Bledsoe also encouraged customers to embed generative AI into their enterprise workflows. Services like OpenAI Service, Logic Apps, API Management, and integrations with SAP support overall integration for ERP and CRM systems.

Microsoft partner group program manager Molly Bostic highlighted that AI Foundry and Microsoft Security Copilot recently achieved ISO/IEC 42001:2023 certification. The new certification is for Artificial Intelligence Management Systems and comes out of the International Organization for Standardization and the International Electrotechnical Commission. According to Bostic, the certification helps customers to accelerate their compliance, build trust, and improve transparency over AI risks. She highlighted Microsoft’s AI Customer Commitments, the Responsible AI Transparency Report, Transparency Notes, and the Responsible AI resources site.
