Explore the resources
Start with your enterprise environment
Connect model selection with the Azure subscription, identity model and data requirements of the business.
Select a business priority
Foundry models and Azure OpenAI
Identify the exact model and deployment type, then confirm availability, account eligibility and quota. Global, Data Zone and regional deployments have different processing-location implications.
Select a business priority
Azure AI Search
Evaluate search and retrieval for approved enterprise content. Plan indexing, refresh, permissions and answer references before integrating a knowledge application.

Application identity and governance
Use the agreed Microsoft Entra ID and Azure permission model to control application access. Define credentials, logging and review responsibilities; model access does not replace governance.
Resource relationships for planning; final scope is confirmed in the proposal.
AI within your existing IT estate
Choose the Azure resources around the work your team needs to run, then align them with the tenant, subscription and operating model.
| Business requirement | Resource plan | Handover focus |
|---|---|---|
| Connect model access with search over approved business content, including vector or hybrid retrieval where suitable. | Model deployment, data indexes, refresh settings and Entra access permissions. | |
| Application and container workloadsVirtual Machines / AKS | Place the application backend, container services or permitted self-hosted workloads in the agreed Azure environment. | Region, compute or node-pool configuration, network access and deployment tests. |
| Existing on-premises or multicloud resourcesAzure Arc | Assess Azure-based inventory and governance for supported resources that stay outside Azure. Management integration does not move the workload by itself. | Connected-resource scope, management permissions, agent requirements and service charges. |
Tenant, subscription and billing stay connected
The proposal identifies the customer tenant, subscription ownership, purchasing route and delegated roles. Handover records connect the deployed resources to cost allocation and agreed support responsibilities.
- Tenant and subscription
- Resource groups and regions
- Entra roles and access
- Usage allocation and runbooks
Models, deployment types and quotas depend on the target subscription and region. Applicable product access and any additional paid services are confirmed before ordering.
Supporting resources
Cloud resources that fit the existing estate.
Virtual Machines and AKS
Assess virtual machines, appropriate GPU resources or Azure Kubernetes Service for applications and permitted self-hosted models. Confirm region, image compatibility and resource availability.
Storage and Azure SQL
Plan Blob Storage and database services around documents, application data, backup and retention. Review network transfer and ongoing storage charges as part of the proposal.
Azure Arc and hybrid environments
Evaluate management across existing infrastructure where supported. Clarify which resources remain on premises, which services run in Azure, and who operates each part.
Procurement & handover
From subscription requirements to an agreed handover.
01RequirementsConfirm the tenant and subscription
Share existing tenant and subscription ownership, purchasing entity, usage countries, target regions and account requirements. Establish the appropriate supply route before ordering.
02ValidationValidate access and cost
Test the intended model or workload within agreed quotas. Separate model usage, compute, storage, transfer and service fees; confirm billing currency and any purchasing commitments.
03HandoverDocument the operating boundary
Hand over agreed deployment and access records, usage allocation and runbooks. Confirm support hours, Microsoft dependencies, change responsibilities and exit requirements.
