Millions of people use Azure AI Search every day without knowing it. You can enable your apps with the same search that enables retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) capabilities when you build Custom GPTs or attach files in your ChatGPT prompts. Pablo Castro, Microsoft CVP and Distinguished Engineer Azure AI Search, joins Jeremy Chapman to share how with Azure AI Search, you can create custom applications that retrieve the most relevant information quickly and accurately, even from billions of records. Manage massive-scale datasets while maintaining high-quality search results with ultra-compact, binary quantized vector search indexes that use Matryoshka Representation Learning (MRL) and oversampling to equal the search accuracy of vector indexes up to 96 times larger. These approaches drive significant cost savings by optimizing your vector indexes without compromising quality. ► QUICK LINKS: 00:00 - RAG powered by Azure AI Search 00:50 - Azure AI Search role in ChatGPT 02:01 - Azure AI Search use case - AT&T 03:27 - Start in Azure Portal 04:35 - Massive scale and vector index 06:08 - Scalar & Binary Quantization 07:21 - Martyoshka technique 09:07 - Oversampling 11:31 - How to build an app using Azure AI Search 13:00 - See it in action 14:28 - Enable binary quantization with oversampling 14:54 - Wrap up ► Link References Get sample code on GitHub at https://aka.ms/SearchQuantizationSample Check out search solutions at https://aka.ms/AzureAISearch ► Unfamiliar with Microsoft Mechanics?

In episode 193 of our SAP on Azure video podcast we talk about the Azure Center for SAP Solutions and how it helps you from the Azure Portal to create and operate SAP systems. We talked about integrating other Azure solutions like Azure Monitor or the Health Check with your SAP system. One cool thing that is availalble under the hood are APIs which allows you to fetch all this information from your SAP system. And this can actually be quite powerful. Trond Stroemme took these APIs and built a really neat Copilot scenario around it. Using the Azure AI Studio you can now build a simple Chat that allows you to interact with the Azure Center for SAP Solutions.

One of the things I've seen in working with cloud based resources is that you get a lot of them in your account quickly. A database might end up with a server, an IP address, a network, security groups, and more. A few clicks of the mouse in the Azure Portal can create a new Resource Group that doesn't just have the one thing you need, but 3, 4, or more other items. In addition to the quantity, there are also the problems of namespaces in cloud resources. Some of the items you provision are publicly named in a domain, such as database.windows.net. In these cases, the resources need to be unique among all cloud customers. Just like domain names, this means that you might have collisions with your favorite name. While I might like jones.com, there are a few other people that would likewise prefer this. The rest of us might have to choose jones2.com, stevejonesincolorado.com, or some other variation. In large organizations, you might end up with LA34532345454.database.windows.net for an Azure SQL Database. Read the rest of The Useful Cloud Tags

☠Azure AD fell down last week, causing outages with Microsoft's Cloud properties Outlook 365, Office 365, the Azure Portal, and Teams were all affected.The root cause was a bug during key rotation, and I'll let the Azure Post Mortem team take it from here:Azure AD utilizes keys to support the use of OpenID and other Identity standard protocols for cryptographic signing operations. As part of standard security hygiene, an automated system, on a time-based schedule, removes keys that are no longer in use. Over the last few weeks, a particular key was marked as “retain” for longer than normal to support a complex cross-cloud migration. This exposed a bug where the automation incorrectly ignored that “retain” state, leading it to remove that particular key.Metadata about the signing keys is published by Azure AD to a global location in line with Internet Identity standard protocols. Once the public metadata was changed at 19:00 UTC on 15 March 2021, applications using these protocols with Azure AD began to pick up the new metadata and stopped trusting tokens/assertions signed with the key that was removed. At that point, end users were no longer able to access those applications.Service telemetry identified the problem, and the engineering team was automatically engaged. At 19:35 UTC on 15 March 2021, we reverted deployment of the last backend infrastructure change that was in progress. Once the key removal operation was identified as the root cause, the key metadata was rolled back to its prior state at 21:05 UTC.This is the second time in six months that Azure AD has gone down. This happened 6 months ago. These are growing pains for Microsoft's cloud endeavors, and the ops teams involved need #hugops. Microsoft being the "safe bet" for enterprises means in part being stable, and two enterprise outages in 6 months is a lot.

In today’s episode, Jeffrey Palermo is joined by Steve Sanderson! Steve is a developer at Microsoft on the ASP.NET team and the inventor of the first version of Blazor. He has worked on web technologies at Microsoft since 2010 and is the author of the popular book, Pro ASP.NET MVC Framework, as well as its various sequels. Steve also started the Knockout.js project back in 2010 (before client-side MV* was cool). In their conversation, Steve speaks about all things Blazor! He shares about the initial vision of Blazor as well as the process that led to the first production-ready version of Blazor. He answers topical questions about Blazor, WebAssembly, and Azure; shares what he is currently working on with regards to Blazor; and offers advice to new and old developers alike! Topics of Discussion: [:38] Be sure to visit AzureDevOps.Show for past episodes and show notes. [:46] About The Azure DevOps Podcast and Jeffrey’s offer to speak at virtual user groups. [1:35] About today’s episode with Steve Sanderson! [2:12] Jeffrey welcomes Steve to the podcast. [2:20] Steve shares some of his software career highlights. [4:30] Steve speaks about the work he did on the Azure Portal. [7:48] Steve shares what the initial vision for Blazor looked like as well as the process that led to the first production-ready version of Blazor. [12:16] Steve explains how Blazor is not a way of running .NET code on WebAssembly; it is a UI framework. [14:22] How (and what) Blazor, as a UI framework, is teaching new developers for the first time. [17:06] A word from Azure DevOps Podcast’s sponsor: Clear Measure. [17:38] With API security, etc. is it built-into Blazor, or, are there things that developers need to keep in mind or do on top of what’s provided by the template? [22:38] When deploying and running WebAssembly, what are the recommended services in Azure? What has Steve tested? [24:23] If a developer’s goal is to have their Blazor app talk to a few of their web API controllers, what is the minimum they need to really think about when setting that up properly in Azure? [26:12] What would the catalyst be to move to some of the Azure services around API management? [28:18] Steve speaks about what he is actively working on now and what he is aiming toward, going forward with Blazor. [34:44] How close are we to being able to take a Blazor WebAssembly app and submit it to the iOS app store? [38:04] Jeffrey thanks Steve for joining the show and Steve shares a recommendation for further learning about Blazor.

It's really easy to get started quickly and go fast with Azure. But what happens when the business starts asking for compliance, security and cost control? In the past this has meant slowing down and implementing large and complex governance frameworks. But now you can have control and go fast with a suite of Azure Governance services and features that were announced at Ignite 2018: Azure Blueprints, Resource Graph, Management Groups and Azure Policy (ARM Policies). In this talk, Daniel Larsen (Technical Evangelist at Microsoft) will demonstrate the new Azure Governance features in the Azure Portal and CLI (Command line interface), and how to quickly implement pragmatic and sensible policies and controls that keep the business happy without slowing developers down. These great new features have drawn from field experience with some of Azure's largest customers, so that everyone can benefit from the right amount of control and go fast.

The O'Reilly Design Podcast: Designing in secret, designing for voice, and why improv is an essential design skill.In this week’s Design Podcast, I sit down with Cheryl Platz, senior designer at Microsoft for the Azure Portal and Marketplaces. We talk about the challenges of working on a top-secret design project, the research behind Amazon's Echo Look, the skills you need to start designing for voice, and how studying improv can make you a better designer.Here are some highlights: The challenges of designing secret projects The Windows Automotive project I worked on at Microsoft wasn't fully 'tented,' but it was kind of hush-hush, so I thought I was prepared when I went to work at Amazon on the Echo Look. But this was...I had never experienced anything truly this secretive. As a designer, being cut off and unable to talk about what you're working on cuts off a part of your process in a way that is a little disorienting. You cannot openly go to customers and ask them questions. You cannot openly go to other designers and ask them questions, and sometimes you can't even ask general questions without causing some kind of curiosity or alarm. ... You really need to get connected with whatever intrinsically motivates you because you're not going to be able to go to critiques and get validation or support or insights from other designers, for the most part. You're going to have to find other ways to gut check yourself to make sure you're considering all perspectives to make sure you don't have any blind spots. It certainly makes things a lot more challenging, and it creates a weird sort of career tension where you know you're on the cutting edge of something and you can’t...tell...anyone. Why voice assistants are all women There's some really good research that takes into account the way our gender perception influences our perception of digital assistants. ... The fascinating thing was that there was cognitive dissonance when a gendered voice talked about a subject that was not perceived to be in that gender's area of strength. For example, if you had a woman talking about the inventory at Home Depot, there was cognitive dissonance. If you had a man talking about fashion, that was cognitive dissonance. So, if you're a company and you're trying to release a product that's going to be very disruptive and cause privacy concerns—and I did not work on the initial release of the Echo, so this is me talking on behalf of myself and not on behalf of any company—but my guess is that if you're a company looking to make this really disruptive wave, you have to minimize cognitive dissonance elsewhere to get people to open their minds to a microphone in their home. For the American market—and the features that they planned for Alexa—Amazon knew Alexa would be used largely in the kitchen. Kitchen timers are super popular. Alarms. Household management stuff. I wish that we were just super gender neutral, but the fact of the market here is that cognitive dissonance exists. It's real. So, if you have a home-oriented product in America, you kind of have to start with a female voice. How studying improv makes you a better designer Doing improv has a direct impact on how you handle conversations, how you approach problem solving, how you approach question-and-answer sessions at conferences. The more you study improv, the more you learn that the world is not full of right and wrong answers. There are a lot of different ways to answer a question. For example, when I'm at conferences and I get tough Q&A, that improv training, where there are just a number of ways to handle a situation—none of them are wrong. There is an answer. Just have faith in your ability to find it. And to listen. That's the other thing. A lot of improv training is about listening to people, starting to understand their motivation—that's a very valuable skill, and I will be the first to admit that early in my career, I was not great at listening. I wanted to be right. I was as guilty as the next person of waiting for the other person to finish speaking so I could speak. Improv helps you get past that.

You're going to have to find other ways to gut check yourself to make sure you're considering all perspectives to make sure you don't have any blind spots. It certainly makes things a lot more challenging, and it creates a weird sort of career tension where you know you're on the cutting edge of something and you can’t...tell...anyone. Why voice assistants are all women There's some really good research that takes into account the way our gender perception influences our perception of digital assistants. ... The fascinating thing was that there was cognitive dissonance when a gendered voice talked about a subject that was not perceived to be in that gender's area of strength. For example, if you had a woman talking about the inventory at Home Depot, there was cognitive dissonance. If you had a man talking about fashion, that was cognitive dissonance. So, if you're a company and you're trying to release a product that's going to be very disruptive and cause privacy concerns—and I did not work on the initial release of the Echo, so this is me talking on behalf of myself and not on behalf of any company—but my guess is that if you're a company looking to make this really disruptive wave, you have to minimize cognitive dissonance elsewhere to get people to open their minds to a microphone in their home. For the American market—and the features that they planned for Alexa—Amazon knew Alexa would be used largely in the kitchen. Kitchen timers are super popular. Alarms. Household management stuff. I wish that we were just super gender neutral, but the fact of the market here is that cognitive dissonance exists. It's real. So, if you have a home-oriented product in America, you kind of have to start with a female voice. How studying improv makes you a better designer Doing improv has a direct impact on how you handle conversations, how you approach problem solving, how you approach question-and-answer sessions at conferences. The more you study improv, the more you learn that the world is not full of right and wrong answers. There are a lot of different ways to answer a question. For example, when I'm at conferences and I get tough Q&A, that improv training, where there are just a number of ways to handle a situation—none of them are wrong. There is an answer. Just have faith in your ability to find it. And to listen. That's the other thing. A lot of improv training is about listening to people, starting to understand their motivation—that's a very valuable skill, and I will be the first to admit that early in my career, I was not great at listening. I wanted to be right. I was as guilty as the next person of waiting for the other person to finish speaking so I could speak. Improv helps you get past that.

In this week's episode we talk about the new Office 365 Groups External Access and how you can use it. We talk about yet another Azure Portal you can add to your Favorites list and what's been added to it recently. A Microsoft patch, MS16-101, can remove your ability to change SharePoint Managed Account passwords. We complain about that a bit. We wrap up by talking about incredible facts about Canada, and what I assume will be my next refrigerator, an LG with Windows 10 installed on it.

Have you used the biggest, most complex Single Page Application (SPA) in the world? It's the Azure Portal! Carl and Richard talk to Jakub Jedryszek, one of the folks building the framework that runs the Azure Portal. Jakub talks about the portal framework being built on TypeScript and Knockout so that all the different Microsoft teams building Azure products don't get delayed in delivery because they can't get on the portal. The challenge is to keep everything orderly so that folks using the Portal can actually make sense of it, and that takes a lot of negotiations and management within the teams. Software is hard, but expectation management is even harder!Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/net-rocks/donations
