About this tag

Key themes include agent operations, data governance, observability, and integration with tools like GitHub Copilot and Microsoft Fabric. Real-world examples, such as Levi's building a super agent layer, illustrate Foundry's use in enterprise workflow automation. The platform is positioned as a control plane for production AI, moving beyond model catalogs to managed infrastructure.
