⚠️ Important: Check Azure OpenAI Quota Availability
To ensure sufficient quota is available in your subscription, please follow quota check instructions guide before you deploy the solution.

To deploy this solution accelerator, ensure you have access to an Azure subscription with the necessary permissions to create resource groups and resources. Follow the steps in Azure Account Set Up.

Check the Azure Products by Region page and select a region where the following services are available: Azure OpenAI Service, Azure AI Search, and Azure Semantic Search.

Here are some example regions where the services are available: East US, East US2, Japan East, UK South, Sweden Central.

Pricing varies per region and usage, so it isn't possible to predict exact costs for your usage. The majority of the Azure resources used in this infrastructure are on usage-based pricing tiers. However, Azure Container Registry has a fixed cost per registry per day.

Use the Azure pricing calculator to calculate the cost of this solution in your subscription. Review a sample pricing sheet for the architecture.

⚠️ Important: To avoid unnecessary costs, remember to take down your app if it's no longer in use, either by deleting the resource group in the Portal or running azd down.
