# Overview: Deploy AI models in Azure AI Foundry portal
1915

20-
The model catalog in Azure AI Foundry portal is the hub to discover and use a wide range of models for building generative AI applications. Models need to be deployed to make them available for receiving inference requests. The process of interacting with a deployed model is called *inferencing*. Azure AI Foundry offer a comprehensive suite of deployment options for those models depending on your needs and model requirements.

* **Azure OpenAI models:** The latest OpenAI models that have enterprise features from Azure.

* **Models as a Service models:** These models don't require compute quota from your subscription. This option allows you to deploy your Model as a Service (MaaS). You use a serverless API deployment and are billed per token in a pay-as-you-go fashion.

* **Open and custom models:** The model catalog offers access to a large variety of models across modalities that are of open access. You can host open models in your own subscription with a managed infrastructure, virtual machines, and the number of instances for capacity management. There's a wide range of models from Azure OpenAI, Hugging Face, and NVIDIA.

Azure AI Foundry encourages customers to explore the deployment options and pick the one that best suites their business and technical needs. In general you can use the following thinking process:

1. Start with the deployment options that have the bigger scopes. This allows you to iterate and prototype faster in your application without having to rebuild your architecture each time you decide to change something. [Azure AI model inference](../../ai-foundry/model-inference/overview.md) is a deployment target that supports all the flagship models in the Azure AI catalog, including latest innovation from Azure OpenAI. To get started, follow [Configure your AI project to use Azure AI model inference](../../ai-foundry/model-inference/how-to/quickstart-ai-project.md).

When your model is not available in Models as a Service and you have compute quota available in your subscription, use [Managed Compute](../how-to/deploy-models-managed.md) which support deployment of open and custom models. It also allows high level of customization of the deployment inference server, protocols, and detailed configuration.
