Navigate complex, distributed data across Azure stores, SharePoint, OneLake, MCP servers, and even the web, all through a single knowledge base that handles query planning and iteration for you. Reuse the Azure AI Search assets you already have, build new knowledge bases with minimal setup, and control how much reasoning effort your agents apply. As you develop, you can rely on iterative retrieval only when it improves results, saving time, tokens, and development complexity.&amp;nbsp; Pablo Castro, Azure AI Search CVP and Distinguished Engineer, joins Jeremy Chapman to share how to build smarter, more capable AI agents, with higher-quality grounded answers and less engineering overhead. \u25ba Link References To learn more check out https:\/\/aka.ms\/FoundryIQ For more details on the evaluation metric discussed on this show, read our blog at https:\/\/aka.ms\/kb-evals For more on Microsoft Foundry go to https:\/\/ai.azure.com\/nextgen \u25ba Unfamiliar with Microsoft Mechanics?
