Use AI and REST with Azure SQL Database | Data Exposed

with Anna Hoffman, Brian Spendolini

The ability to simply call REST endpoints with a single line of code opens up the world of Azure Services to an Azure SQL Database. A single stored procedure call can access event hubs, blob storage, functions, and even AI. In this episode, Anna Hoffman and Brian Spendolini discuss how the newly generally available feature, External REST Endpoint Invocation can be used to call Azure services, popular use cases, and how to call OpenAI right within the database to generate answers using your data.
