In this article, you learn about the diverse set of Azure OpenAI models that agents use in Microsoft Foundry Agent Service. These models have various capabilities and price points.

Microsoft Foundry offers two main types of deployments:

  • Standard includes a global deployment option that routes traffic globally to provide higher throughput.
  • Provisioned also includes a global deployment option. You can purchase and deploy provisioned throughput units across the Azure global infrastructure.

All deployments can perform the same inference operations. However, the billing, scale, and performance are substantially different. To learn more about Azure OpenAI deployment types, see Deployment types for Microsoft Foundry Models.

Available models

Foundry Agent Service supports the following Azure OpenAI models in the listed regions.

Keep in mind that model availability varies by region and cloud. Certain tools and capabilities require the latest models. The following models are available in the REST API and SDKs.
