Microsoft Ignite will run November 17 to 20 in San Francisco and online. Here's a quick recap of our work with NVIDIA this year and the sessions where you can hear more.
Microsoft Ignite will run November 17 to 20 at Moscone Center in San Francisco and online with a free digital pass (register for in-person or online access here). Microsoft will open with the keynote on Tuesday, November 17, at 10:00 AM PT, and after Microsoft and NVIDIA will be there together in breakout sessions, in a hands-on lab, and on the show floor.
In case you missed it
Vera Rubin. In March, Microsoft became the first cloud to bring up an NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL72 system for validation. In August, we delivered the first production Vera Rubin systems in our datacenters.
Cloud to edge. In our October post, we shared how Azure and Azure Local, with NVIDIA accelerated computing, let you build AI in the cloud and run it where latency, data residency, or operational control matter.
Where to hear more at Ignite
AI infrastructure on Azure
On Tuesday, November 17, at 3:15 PM PT, Power accelerated computing on Azure with NVIDIA, will be led by Dave Salvator, Director of Accelerated Computing at NVIDIA, who will cover running AI, data science, and simulation workloads with NVIDIA GPUs, software, and services.
Agentic AI with Microsoft Foundry and NVIDIA Nemotron
On Wednesday, November 18, at 11:30 AM PT, Architect reliable and secure agentic AI at scale, will show how to build agentic AI with Microsoft Foundry, NVIDIA Nemotron models, and NVIDIA infrastructure on Azure. To try it yourself, join LABSP840, a hands-on lab with Nemotron and Foundry. It's in person only and won't be recorded.
Cloud to edge and physical AI
Scaling intelligence cloud to edge with agentic AI factories will run Thursday, November 19, at 2:45 PM PT. Dion Harris, Senior Director of AI Infrastructure and HPC Solutions at NVIDIA, will walk through how NVIDIA and Microsoft co-engineer full-stack AI infrastructure for Azure datacenters and for Azure Local. He'll also cover token-per-watt efficiency and how NVIDIA open models and Open Agent Safety help secure agentic AI.
Industries reimagined with physical AI will feature speakers from Microsoft and NVIDIA on Thursday, November 19, at 10:15 AM PT. The LTGSP1631 lightning talk will cover digital twins and physical AI with Azure, NVIDIA Omniverse libraries, and NVIDIA cuOpt. NVIDIA cuOpt is an open-source GPU-accelerated optimization engine delivering near real-time solutions for complex decision-making challenges. Both are in person only. BRKSP615 will be recorded; the lightning talk won't be.
