Building with Azure OpenAI
Azure OpenAI is strongest at enterprise compliance posture and integration with existing Microsoft estates. We reach for it when that is the property a workload actually depends on, and we say so when it is not.
We start from the constraint, not the capability, what the system must never do, who signs off, and what happens when it is wrong. Six weeks to something running in production, not six quarters to a strategy document.

Questions
What is Azure OpenAI best at?
Enterprise compliance posture and integration with existing Microsoft estates.
When would you not use Azure OpenAI?
Quota management and regional capacity can constrain scaling at short notice. We would look at AWS Bedrock or Supabase in that situation.
Do you have a commercial relationship with Microsoft?
No. We hold no reseller commission on any technology we recommend, which is what lets the trade-off above be stated plainly.
Can you work with our existing Azure OpenAI setup?
Yes. We would rather extend and stabilise something that already works than introduce a parallel system your team has to learn.
Working with Azure OpenAI?
Tell us the workload and we will tell you whether this is the right tool for it.
