What you’ll build
In this hands-on workshop you’ll go from an empty repo to a working Retrieval-Augmented Generation app running on Azure — the same pattern used in production support assistants and internal knowledge tools.
Agenda
- Ingestion — chunk documents and push embeddings into Azure AI Search.
- Retrieval — hybrid search that actually returns the right passages.
- Generation — ground Azure OpenAI answers in retrieved context and cite sources.
- Hardening — guardrails, evaluation, and cost control before you ship.
Who it’s for
.NET and Azure developers who want a concrete, end-to-end RAG blueprint rather than another slide deck. Comfort with C# and the Azure portal is enough — no prior AI experience required.
What to bring
A laptop with the .NET SDK and an Azure subscription (a free trial works). The join link is sent to everyone who registers.
