Azure Cosmos DB

Your database IS your AI strategy. Most developers don't think about it until something breaks 😳 SQL wasn't built for: ↳ data that changes shape frequently ↳ writes across distributed systems at scale ↳ vector search and semantic similarity queries that AI applications need If you're building modern applications or AI-powered features and want to see how the data layer ACTUALLY works at scale you need to come to this FREE virtual event: Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB Conf in partnership w/ AMD TOMORROW: https://lnkd.in/eHfyzxNZ Here's what you'll walk away with: ↳ How to build and scale AI applications on a NoSQL data layer ↳ Real data modeling and querying patterns that work in production ↳ How to build AI apps without breaking the bank ↳ A full Python build path for developers ↳ Production architecture from engineering teams at OpenAI, Vercel, and Walmart This event was made FOR developers BY developers, so there’s no fluff! Just real code and real demos from people shipping at scale. This is a great free resource to learn about NoSQL architecture, building AI-powered applications at scale, and the data layer decisions that actually matter in production. And you can get a FREE Azure certification voucher if you complete the new Cosmos Conf Skills Challenge by May 8th. All you have to do is attend Cosmos Conf to get up to speed on everything Cosmos and then register for the Skills Challenge. You can earn a 100% discounted voucher for the DP‑420 Azure Cosmos DB Developer Specialty! 🚨 Save your seat: https://lnkd.in/eHfyzxNZ I'll be there speaking too (come say hi!) 😎 (If you miss it live, you can still watch ALL the recordings!) #MicrosoftPartner ♻️ repost to share this free Microsoft event w/ your network!

Tomorrow we go live with Azure Cosmos DB Conf 2026 — a free, virtual day for developers building modern, scalable applications on Azure Cosmos DB. The keynote brings together leaders from Vercel, OpenAI, Walmart, and AMD on what it takes to build at planetary scale. After that, 14 live sessions from Microsoft engineers and the global community covering AI agent memory, Change Feed, query and indexing, security, cost optimization, and more. 📅 Tuesday, April 28 · 9:00 AM – 2:00 PM PT 📺 Watch live: https://msft.it/6046vGjsm #AzureCosmosDBConf #AzureCosmosDB

Turning off public network access on Azure Cosmos DB is a one-click change. Making sure your VMs still resolve the account to a private IP afterward is the part that needs care. This Medium post by Himangani Mourya walks through the full private endpoint setup: resource type selection, VNet + subnet choice, Private DNS zone linking, and the cross-VNet gotcha when the VM and Cosmos DB account live in different networks. Worth a read before you flip the public-access switch. https://msft.it/6044vEMAm #AzureCosmosDB #Networking

Azure Cosmos DB as a memory store for AI agents. That's the approach Tamás-Márk Furó took when building a custom persistence layer for Azure AI Agent Service. The implementation covers: - Persistent chat history across sessions - Tool usage tracking and replay - Semantic caching for repeated queries - Thread management at scale One data store handling all agent state. No separate cache, no external session store. https://msft.it/6047vEMxJ #AzureCosmosDB #AIAgents
