Learn how to go from local development to cloud deployment with a fully functional, AI-ready application powered by SQL Server. In this session, you’ll see how GitHub Copilot in VS Code streamlines database design, schema creation, and backend code generation, helping you move seamlessly from database to application code.

You’ll connect your backend through REST or GraphQL endpoints, build a modern frontend with Azure Static Web Apps, and explore how SQL Server’s native vector data types enable semantic search and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) scenarios—bringing AI directly into your app’s data layer.

Whether you’re prototyping or scaling your next big idea, this session shows how to build intelligent, cloud-ready apps—starting entirely on your local machine.
