Join the Free Azure Community! https://azureinnovationstation.com/community How do you implement memory in Microsoft Foundry — in the portal and in code? In this 11-minute demo, I walk through how memory works in Microsoft Foundry and show you exactly how to implement it when building Azure AI agents. You’ll see: How to create a memory store in the Microsoft Foundry portal How to attach and use a memory store with an AI agent How to search a memory store using the Microsoft Foundry SDK for Python How to add memories programmatically This is a practical, hands-on walkthrough for developers building stateful AI agents on Microsoft Azure. Memory is what enables your AI agent to retain context, store information, and retrieve relevant data using embeddings and semantic search. Without it, your agent is stateless. With it, your agent becomes contextual, personalized, and production-ready. ▬▬▬▬▬▬ C H A P T E R S ▬▬▬▬▬▬ 00:00:00 Intro 00:01:09 How to create and use a Memory Store in Microsoft Foundry 00:05:03 How to search memories and add memories directly ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ If you want to learn more about Azure and Azure AI Agents check out these video Playlists below Microsoft Foundry Playlist - Learn how to build, deploy and manage AI Apps and Agents https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLqMeAuMeQoz4COUqgjQMMXoC2H9_dGpwj Azure AI Search Playlist https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLqMeAuMeQoz4Mi5uWIEaKh0iTEM77vYM2 Masterclass Playlist https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLqMeAuMeQoz6iUncf8NWedyLTHBQmBszU Azure in 1 Minute - Quick overview videos on Azure Services in 1 minute https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLqMeAuMeQoz7OB1inR_SyuxU9Kfk4T0ek&si=GXMHvwlRrN9LNJ2K Azure in 2-5 Minutes - Quick, Clear, Concise Azure Videos in 2-5 minutes https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLqMeAuMeQoz4Bl9YFTxHkoHSiLkH-uqLY&si=8AZ8iYgbKhUPH-Wa Learn Azure in General https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLqMeAuMeQoz4d-GDz1_jZGgA8HU_ruB44&si=ONPXlvFrur_7FuAD Azure Fu
