Azure OpenAI Integration in Cambridge

Connecting Cambridge applications to Azure OpenAI, where you do not call a model — you call your deployment of one. Each deployment is a named resource with its own throughput allocation, so capacity is something you provision and divide between applications rather than a shared pool that simply absorbs demand.

Why this comes up

The problem

Two applications share one deployment, the batch job runs, and the customer-facing feature starts returning throttling errors.

What you get

What we deliver

  • Deployments separated per application, so one cannot starve another
  • Throughput allocated against measured demand rather than divided evenly
  • Throttling handled with backoff, since exceeding your allocation is normal
  • Deployment names abstracted in configuration, not embedded across the code
  • Model version upgrades planned, as deployments pin to specific versions
  • Managed identity used in place of keys wherever the platform allows

Azure OpenAI Integration in Cambridge — common questions

Why separate deployments per application?
Because throughput is allocated to the deployment. Sharing one means a batch process consuming its allocation leaves nothing for an interactive feature, and the user-facing service fails for reasons that have nothing to do with its own traffic.
How is capacity allocated?
You assign it, within what your subscription has been granted. That makes capacity planning a real exercise — measuring what each application consumes and dividing deliberately rather than discovering the split through production incidents.
What happens when a model version is retired?
Deployments pin to a version, and versions are eventually retired on a published schedule. That gives you notice, and it means somebody has to be watching for it — otherwise the first sign is a deployment that stops working.
Should we use keys or managed identity?
Managed identity where the calling service supports it. It removes a credential from your configuration entirely, which is both more secure and less work than rotating keys across every application that holds one. Keys remain necessary for callers outside Azure, and those are worth treating as the exception to be inventoried rather than the normal way in.
Do you work with businesses across Cambridgeshire?
Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout East of England, including Cambridge and the surrounding Cambridgeshire area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
What kind of Cambridge businesses do you usually work with?
Deep-tech and biotech clients bring genuinely technical briefs, often involving data pipelines, instrumentation or research tooling. Beyond that we work across Technology, Life Sciences, Research, Higher Education and Biotech.
Do you cover the areas around Cambridge?
Yes — we work throughout East of England, including Norwich, Milton Keynes, London, Northampton. Cambridge is an urban area of roughly 150,000+, and we take on work across the wider Cambridgeshire region rather than the city boundary alone.
