Generative AI powered by your SQL data

Microsoft Mechanics Podcast

See how you can use your SQL data as a robust backend for AI applications with semantic search and retrieval augmented generation. Azure SQL Database along with any SQL servers you connect to Azure integrate seamlessly with Azure AI Search and the Azure OpenAI Service, enabling natural language search capabilities within your SQL data.

Use this approach to enhance e-commerce platforms, financial data analysis, or CRM systems while using SQL's granular access management controls to ensure that data searches and generated responses are limited to specific user permissions.
