• Integrate with enterprise systems: Build logic layers and integrations across APIs, workflow tools, data platforms, and approved enterprise data sources.
• Deploy securely to production: Use enterprise AI platforms (e.g., Azure AI Foundry) with appropriate security, access controls, monitoring, and reliability practices.
