Before deploying Ejento AI, ensure that you meet the following prerequisites. This will streamline the deployment process and help avoid common issues.1. Access to Azure OpenAI Service#
To set up Ejento AI, you need:
(a) Access to the Azure OpenAI Service, and
(b) Enough quota (Tokens-per-Minute, TPM) for your target model and region.
A. Confirm Service Access (Gated)#
Azure OpenAI is a Limited Access service.If your subscription isn’t enabled yet, apply and wait for approval (typically a few business days).
You can request access by opening a support ticket with Azure.
B. Check Your Quota (Per Model, Per Region)#
In the Azure AI Foundry/Portal:1.
Go to your Azure OpenAI resource.
2.
Navigate to Management → Quota.
3.
Review your available TPM.
Quota is managed per model, per region and allocated in capacity units. TPM is linked to the service.
C. When You Can Skip the Quota Request#
If you already have ≥ 50,000 TPM for the model and region you plan to use:You can skip the quota-increase request.
Proceed directly to deployment after completing the steps below.
Ejento AI will run within your assigned TPM.
D. If You Need More Quota#
In the same Quota menu, click Request quota for the model/region you need.
Read the instructions carefully and answer each question completely when submitting the quota increase request.
You can also open a support request from the resource.
Note: Ensure your Azure account has the necessary permissions to request quota and access.
2. Creating an Azure AI Foundry Resource#
When using a new Azure subscription, Microsoft requires a human to review and accept the Responsible AI Terms before an Azure AI Foundry resource can be provisioned. Automated deployments cannot bypass this requirement.To ensure your Ejento deployment does not fail, please manually create an Azure AI Foundry resource in your subscription and accept the terms ahead of time. This guarantees the rest of the deployment will proceed smoothly without interruption.Make sure you have accepted the "Responsible AI Terms" while creating the Azure AI Foundry resource.
3. Register Resource Providers in MS Azure Subscription#
Certain Azure Resource Providers must be registered in your subscription to ensure all necessary services are available for Ejento AI. Here are the steps to register them:Navigate to Subscriptions > [Your Subscription] > Resource Providers.
Search for and register the following providers:2.
Microsoft.CognitiveServices
3.
Microsoft.DBforPostgreSQL
12.
Microsoft.BackupSolutions
22.
Microsoft.AlertsManagement
23.
Microsoft.AppConfiguration
25.
Microsoft.ContainerService
26.
Microsoft.OperationalInsights
Click on each provider and then click Register.
Locating Resource Providers on MS Azure#
Go to Subscriptions#
Select your Subscription#
Click on Resource Providers and Search on the right#
Click on the three dots and select "Register"#
4. Checking PostgreSQL Quota in Azure#
To ensure your PostgreSQL database runs smoothly, check your quota before deployment. Follow these steps:Sign in with your credentials.
In the search bar, type "Subscriptions" and select it from the search results.
Choose your subscription from the list.
On the Subscription menu, scroll down and click on Usage + quotas.
Filter by Region: Select East US 2.
Filter by Resource Type: Select Azure Postgres.
Ensure there’s enough vCore quota available for deploying PostgreSQL to avoid issues.
Make sure you have the necessary administrative permissions to perform these actions in your Azure subscription.
Double-check that you are using the correct Azure region for all resources, as this can affect service availability and performance.
