Description
**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
Right now, we don’t have an easy way to use [Neon Serverless Postgres](https://neon.tech/) as a knowledge base in the Azure AI Agent service. This makes it harder to store and query structured data directly from an AI agent, especially when working in a no-code setup using Azure AI Foundry.
**Describe the solution you'd like**
We would like to add support for Neon Serverless Postgres as a knowledge tool in the Azure AI Agent service. This should work with the Azure AI Project SDK and be available as a built-in no-code integration inside Azure AI Foundry. Neon is an official Microsoft partner and has a native integration for Microsoft Azure, so this would make the setup seamless and efficient.
**Describe alternatives you've considered**
We’ve looked at other databases, but they often need more setup or don’t support serverless features well. Neon’s serverless model fits well with Azure AI Agent’s scalable and event-driven architecture.
**Additional context**
Having this integration will make it much easier for developers and non-developers to build intelligent agents that can interact with structured data. It would also help keep everything within the Microsoft ecosystem and reduce friction during setup.
Neon is a serverless Postgres that’s a great fit for AI agents because:
- Agents can create their own databases programmatically.
- Each agent can get a separate, isolated database—useful for stateful reasoning, memory, or long-term storage.
- Neon supports branching, which is perfect for experimentation or simulations.
- There’s no cost when databases are idle, which aligns well with how agents operate asynchronously or event-driven.
