Configuring resources

To use the Azure OpenAI proxy service, you need to configure the resources. This guide will walk you through the process of configuring the resources.

Managing resources

The following assumes you have an AI Proxy deployment for your organization and have access to the AI Proxy Admin portal to configure the resources. If you do not have an AI Proxy deployment, please refer to the deployment guide.

This is typically a one-off process. Once you have configured the resources, you can use the same resources for multiple events.

  1. Create the required Azure OpenAI models and AI Search services in your Azure subscription.
  2. Sign into the AI Proxy Admin portal and authenticate using your organization's Entra credentials.
  3. Select the Resources tab, then add a collection of resources that you will use for your events.

    Add resources

Adding resources

To add a resource, click on the + New Resource button.

Duplicate resources

Duplicating a resource is useful when you want to create a new resource with similar settings as an existing resource.

To duplicate a resource, click on the Duplicate icon next to the resource you want to duplicate.

Deleting resources

To delete a resource, click on the Delete icon next to the resource you want to delete. Note, you cannot delete a resource that is in use by an event.

Dall-E resources

Dall-E-3 resources, when added to an event will enable the Images tab in the AI Playground.

Load balancing resources

For larger events with many attendees (for example 200 concurrent users generating 4 model requests per minute) you can configure multiple resources with the same resource name to balance the load.

For example, you can deploy multiple gpt-35-turbo models in different Azure OpenAI resources with the same name. The proxy will round robin across the models of the same deployment name to balance the load. See the Capacity Planning guide for more information.
