Why watch
This episode introduces Adaptive Applications, a Microsoft architectural pattern that decouples application requirements from infrastructure delivery using capability-based abstractions. Viewers learn how to build applications once and deploy across Azure, sovereign clouds, edge, and on-premises environments while maintaining data residency, compliance, and business continuity. The video specifically covers how AI-powered applications can seamlessly switch between cloud-based AI services and local models without code changes.
