Don't worry. Not everyone knows it...

Imagine you're at a busy airport, and planes from different airlines are landing and taking off. To keep everything running smoothly, air traffic controllers decide which runway each plane should use. Now, think of AI models as those planes—each one has different strengths, speeds, and capabilities. The Azure Model Router  acts like an air traffic controller for AI models, ensuring that every request gets handled by the best model available. What is Azure Model Router? Azure Model Router is a smart AI system that automatically selects the best AI model to respond to a request. Instead of developers manually choosing which AI model to use, the Model Router does it for them, optimizing for speed, cost, and accuracy. It’s part of Azure AI Foundry , a platform that helps businesses and developers deploy AI models efficiently. Why Do We Need It? AI models come in different types—some are great at answering questions, others are better at reasoning, and some are super-fast but less detai...
