Program and Build a NLP Solution with Azure AI Foundry

Program and Build a NLP (Natural Language Processing) Solution with Azure AI Foundry

This session demonstrates how to build an end-to-end Natural Language Processing (NLP) solution using Microsoft Azure AI Foundry, based on a real hands-on project.

It walks through designing an NLP workflow, selecting and configuring foundation models, applying prompt engineering techniques along with model fine-tuning, and structuring the solution for scalability and real-world use.

Attendees will see real architecture decisions, code examples, and lessons learned from implementing NLP solutions on Azure.
