Observe and evaluate agents for quality and safety in Microsoft Foundry
About this episode
Foundry Observability empowers developers to take agents from prototype to production with end-to-end observability. We demonstrate how evaluations, tracing, monitoring, and optimization work together to identify issues, measure quality, and improve outcomes over time. Through a live demo spanning the Foundry portal and VS Code, we showcase a practical workflow for building more reliable, production-ready agents.
