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.
