Kubernetes data analytics platform on Google Cloud
Why Choose This Project?
AI chatbots are transforming customer support, e-learning, and virtual assistance by providing instant, intelligent responses. Using Azure Cognitive Services, students can build a cloud-powered chatbot capable of natural language understanding (NLU), speech recognition, and contextual responses.
This project is ideal for learning AI integration, cloud APIs, and serverless conversational applications.

Working Flow
-
User Interaction
User interacts with chatbot via web interface, mobile app, or messaging platform. -
Message Processing
Messages are sent to Azure Functions, which process the request. -
Intent Recognition
Azure LUIS analyzes user input to determine intent and extract entities. -
Response Generation
Based on intent, the chatbot fetches answers from QnA Maker, custom logic, or APIs. -
Optional Speech
Text responses can be converted to speech using Azure Speech API. -
Logging & Analytics
All conversations and interactions are logged in Cosmos DB for monitoring and analysis.
