 # Connections in Azure AI Foundry portal
 
-Connections in Azure AI Foundry portal are a way to authenticate and consume both Microsoft and non-Microsoft resources within your Azure AI Foundry projects. For example, connections can be used for prompt flow, training data, and deployments. [Connections can be created](../how-to/connections-add.md) exclusively for one project or shared with all projects in the same hub.

 LangChain is a development ecosystem that makes as easy possible for developers to build applications that reason. The ecosystem is composed by multiple components. Most of the them can be used by themselves, allowing you to pick and choose whichever components you like best.

+Models deployed to [Azure AI Foundry](https://ai.azure.com) can be used with LangChain in two ways:
 
 - **Using the Azure AI model inference API:** All models deployed to Azure AI Foundry support the [Azure AI model inference API](../../../ai-foundry/model-inference/reference/reference-model-inference-api.md), which offers a common set of functionalities that can be used for most of the models in the catalog. The benefit of this API is that, since it's the same for all the models, changing from one to another is as simple as changing the model deployment being use. No further changes are required in the code. When working with LangChain, install the extensions `langchain-azure-ai`.

 # Azure AI Foundry feature availability across clouds regions
 
-Azure AI Foundry brings together various Azure AI capabilities that previously were only available as standalone Azure services. While we strive to make all features available in all regions where Azure AI Foundry is supported at the same time, feature availability may vary by region. In this article, you'll learn what Azure AI Foundry features are available across cloud regions.
