At this year’s Microsoft Build, we’re excited to share the latest updates and innovations in Microsoft Azure Database for PostgreSQL. Whether you’re building AI powered apps and agents or just looking to uplevel your PostgreSQL experience, we’ve got sessions packed with insights and tools tailored for developers and technical leaders. 

As a fully managed, AI-ready open source relational database that offers 58% cost savings over an on-premises PostgreSQL database – Azure Database for PostgreSQL enhances your security, scalability, and management of enterprise workloads. 

Check out what’s happening with Postgres at Build — in Seattle and online: 

🔍 Breakout Sessions 

BRK211: Building Advanced Agentic Apps with PostgreSQL on Azure

What benefits do agentic architectures bring compared to traditional RAG patterns? Find out how we answer this question by exploring advanced agentic capabilities offered by popular GenAI frameworks (LangChain, LlamaIndex, Semantic Kernel) and how they transform RAG applications built on Azure Database for PostgreSQL. Learn how to further improve agentic apps by integrating advanced RAG techniques, making vector search faster with the DiskANN vector search algorithm, and more accurate with Semantic Ranking and GraphRAG.

BRK204: What’s New in Microsoft Databases: Empowering AI-Driven App Dev

Explore advanced applications powered by Microsoft databases on-premises, on Azure and in Microsoft Fabric. Uncover innovative approaches to scalability and learn about intelligent data processing with AI-driven insights and agentic integrations. See new features with engaging demos across all databases including Azure Database for PostgreSQL.
