There are tons of benefits to online educational tools and kids are used to being online, so teachers can utilize Web-based learning materials to make learning more engaging and fun. When students have to use a device that doesn’t work with all of the learning content teachers assign or they’re interested in, however, they can become disengaged. Whether the content comes from a publisher and enhances normal classwork, or is supplementary content that a teacher could offer for extra credit or added practice, it’s critical that the student’s device offers a complete learning experience. Of the two devices we tested, the Windows 8.1-based HP 210 G1 Notebook PC powered by an Intel processor had fewer issues. The Chromebook 2 had more problems, ranging from issues with Java to requirements for workaround apps and more. Teachers need an option that will help students learn, not distract them. Schoolwork can be hard enough without having to fight with a device to show content—students need something for a full experience. The Windows-based HP 210 G1 Notebook PC experienced fewer problems with the kinds of online learning resources that students use today than the Samsung Chromebook 2.

Compared to the Supermicro management portfolio Conclusion Choosing a vendor for server purchases is about more than just the hardware platform. Decision-makers must also consider more long-term concerns, including system/data security, energy efficiency, and ease of management. These concerns make the systems management tools a vendor offers as important as the hardware. We investigated the features and capabilities of server management tools from Dell and Supermicro, comparing Dell iDRAC9 against Supermicro IPMI for embedded server management and Dell OpenManage Enterprise and CloudIQ against Supermicro Server Manager for one-to-many device and console management and monitoring. We found that the Dell management tools provided more comprehensive security, sustainability, and management/monitoring features and capabilities than Supermicro servers did. In addition, Dell tools automated more tasks to ease server management, resulting in significant time savings for administrators versus having to do the same tasks manually with Supermicro tools. When making a server purchase, a vendor’s associated management products are critical to protect data, support a more sustainable environment, and to ease the maintenance of systems. Our tests and research showed that the Dell management portfolio for PowerEdge servers offered more features to help organizations meet these goals than the comparable Supermicro management products.

How your organization can put artificial intelligence (AI) to work with Azure Cosmos DB Conclusion It’s clear that AI is bringing new opportunities to organizations across industries as they work to create more intelligent, AI-enabled applications. What is not always clear, though, is where and how to start with your own AI implementation on your own operational data. In this report, we’ve highlighted several possible use cases where Azure Cosmos DB, among other Azure services, may be able to help. To demonstrate how well some of these services work with Azure Cosmos DB, we found it straightforward to build a proof-of-concept intelligent chat application utilizing data we brought to the table. For your AI initiatives, consider exploring Azure Cosmos DB and the Azure ecosystem.

Utilizing Azure Cosmos DB for intelligent AI‑powered applications

Principled Technologies

We built an intelligent AI chat application using Microsoft Azure Cosmos DB for NoSQL and Azure AI Services Intelligent AI-powered applications drawing on your organizations’ own data have the potential to expand your capabilities and unlock myriad efficiencies. By storing your data in Azure Cosmos DB and starting with the Microsoft reference solution Vector Search & AI Assistant, like we did, you can start bringing value to your organization quickly. In this proof of concept, a small team at Principled Technologies sought to create a functional chat application with a new, large sample set of data stored in Azure Cosmos DB, using the Vector Search & AI Assistant as our starting point. In the science behind the report, we detail exactly what we did and how we did it, so you can use our work as a starting point for your own application. If you have chosen to develop an intelligent Azure application that uses large language models with your own data, an effective approach is to store your unstructured or document-based data in Azure Cosmos DB, use Azure AI Search as a search and retrieval system, and utilize Azure OpenAI Service for your LLM access. We implemented this application with a custom dataset, proving that it is not only possible but straightforward to built an intelligent AI-powered application using Azure Cosmos DB and other tools from Azure. While our application is specifically a chat application based on the Vector Search & AI Assistant application, Azure Cosmos DB is also suitable for intelligent AI-powered applications beyond the chat realm. Depending on your organization’s specific needs, you may wish to build an application that performs recommendations, one that allows for speedier transactions, or something entirely unique to you.
