Azure OpenAI Service: Production Architecture and Cost Optimization

Описание: In this deep dive, we cover everything that is needed to deploy Azure OpenAI Service in production environments. We cover the architectural decisions, security configurations, and cost management strategies that separate prototype implementations from enterprise-ready systems.

================
What you will learn:
================
Resource Provisioning & Setup
Creating Azure OpenAI resources with proper region selection
Model deployment strategies and version management
Understanding TPM quota allocation across deployments

Authentication & Security
API key vs Azure AD authentication comparison
Implementing managed identities for zero-credential architecture
Private endpoints and VNet integration
RBAC configuration and audit logging

Cost Management Strategies
Understanding Azure OpenAI pricing structure (tokens, models, regions)
Prompt engineering for 60% cost reduction
Intelligent model routing between GPT-4 and GPT-3.5-Turbo
Response caching implementation with Redis
Strategic max token configuration by use case
Streaming responses for cost and latency optimization

Quota Management & Rate Limiting
Allocating TPM quota across production and development deployments
Implementing exponential backoff for 429 errors
Queue-based request handling for high-volume scenarios

Monitoring & Observability
Configuring Azure Monitor diagnostic settings
Building cost dashboards with KQL queries
Setting up automated alerts for budget overruns
Tracking token usage, latency, and error rates

Production Best Practices
Multi-region deployment architecture
Request timeout configuration by use case
Content filtering policies and customization
Complete production architecture with caching, routing, and monitoring

Migration Path & Common Pitfalls
5-phase migration from prototype to production (4-6 week timeline)
Avoiding quota planning mistakes
Regional selection considerations
Secret management with Key Vault
