Originally I combined this discussion into the Copilot discussion I started, but decided it should have its own thread since the tech stack and approach may be different.
So here goes...
We've developed several components using Azure Open AI in the backend and different frond ends like chat bots in Teams and PowerApps. The components can be manually configured to work with OpenAI-enabled Azure tenants, and so, when we deploy for customers, we either use our own Azure, or configure it for the customers Azure (again, its a manual process).
Are there plans to allow components in the marketplace that can utilize the customer's tenant for this?
I realize we can offer the front ends in the marketplace (e.g. chat bots, etc), but there are a few issues with that (that I know):
- I don't think they can be transactable.
- The customer may want to use their own tenant for sensitive data, so I'm not sure how to enable this configuration through the marketplace?
- This may be cannibalizing Copilot sales, so would Microsoft be ever be interested in supporting transactability for this?
We have an abundance of cool ideas, pretty decent tech execution abilities, but very limited funding, so we're trying to figure out if its worth pursuing this...
The answer may be 'no, just no' :) but I thought it was worth having a discussion.
