Task 01: Set up a hub and project in Azure AI Foundry

Introduction

To support Adatum’s initiative for AI-driven customer engagement, the first step is to establish a structured environment where AI projects can be built and managed. By creating a hub in Azure AI Foundry, Adatum can centralize AI models, configurations, and data integrations, ensuring scalability and efficiency for future AI implementations.

Description

In this task, you’ll create a hub within Azure AI Foundry to host your projects and resources. The hub serves as the foundation for deploying AI solutions and integrating AI services that Adatum will use to enhance customer engagement. After setting up the hub, you will also create a project within it to organize and manage AI-related workflows effectively.

Success Criteria

  • The Azure AI Foundry hub has been created successfully.
  • A new project has been set up within the hub.

    The hub is the overarching development environment. Access to the hub allows you to modify the infrastructure, create new hubs, and create projects. Projects exist within a hub and can have different permissions and resources. When granted access to a project, the user is also automatically granted Reader level access to the associated hub. The user is also granted the Inference Deployment Operator role, which allows them to create deployments on the resource group that the project is in. To create a project, you’ll need either the Azure AI Developer or Azure AI Inference Deployment Operator roles.
