Course Description

Azure OpenAI for Developers | Microsoft Azure AI Training

This course offers a comprehensive introduction to AI development with a primary focus on integrating OpenAI functionalities and tools. Designed for developers already familiar with foundational web technologies, this curriculum dives deep into leveraging OpenAI’s capabilities to build AI-powered applications. 

Key Highlights: 

  • Foundation: Begin with an understanding of OpenAI’s key features, capabilities, and potential applications. 
  • Setting Up: Equip yourself with the required tools and software, including Visual Studio Code, Python, .NET, Git, Postman, NodeJS, and Microsoft C++ Build Tools. Special attention is given to troubleshooting common setup challenges. 
  • Hands-on Challenges: Transition from theory to practice with seven extensive challenges. These span from provisioning Azure OpenAI resources, understanding API keys and endpoints, integrating various SDKs, building applications using ReactJS and ASP.NET Core, and finally, managing container deployments using Azure services. 
  • Azure Integration: Learn the intricacies of Azure Container Registry, Azure App Service, and Azure DevOps. Delve deep into the build and release pipelines, ensuring a smooth CI/CD process. 

By the end of this course, participants will be adept at creating, testing, and deploying AI-enhanced applications, with a thorough grasp of both OpenAI tools and Azure’s deployment mechanisms.
