-
1.Automating the tool calling lifecycle for you – no need to parse a tool call, invoke the tool, and handle the response; all of this is now done server-side

3.Providing out-of-the-box tools – Azure AI Agent Service comes with a set of tools that you can use to interact with your data sources, such as Bing, Azure AI Search, and Azure Functions.

Both services enable you to build agents using the same API and SDKs, but if you have additional enterprise requirements, you may want to consider using Azure AI Agent Service. Azure AI Agent Service provides all the capabilities of assistants in addition to:
48
-
* The ability to use non-Azure OpenAI models Such as Llama-3.
49
-
* An extended toolset that lets you ground the agent with different services such as Microsoft Bing, Azure Functions, and services defined with OpenAPI specifications.
50
-
* And the ability to bring your own Azure Blog storage and Azure AI Search resources for full control and visibility of your storage resources.
