Why I started developing bots
First of all, I like
new technology.
Second, it’s a lot of
fun and possibly
the next big thing.
DEVOPS / IOT
The history of bots
Remember Clippy? The Microsoft Office personal assistant. An example of the early stages of bots helping humans achieve more.

The future of bots
Microsoft sees
conversational
chatbots as the
future of computing
and is betting big
on this technology.

Before you start developing
• Develop the bot with a clear goal in mind;
• Don’t try to let your bot do everything;
• Make your bot really good at a specific task.

Let me show you a bot

Microsoft Bot Framework
Build and connect
intelligent bots
with the Microsoft
Bot Framework to
interact with your
users naturally.
DEVOPS / IOT
Supported Channels
Channels currently
available are: Skype,
web, email, Facebook,
GroupMe, Kik, Slack,
Telegram, Twilio,
Teams and direct line
app integration.
DEVOPS / IOT
Add channels easily
With a flick of a switch
channels are added to
your bot. Extending
your audience by the
millions.

The framework at a glance
The Microsoft Bot
Framework gives you
all the tools you need
to build smart bots
fast and easy*

The framework at work
The bot connector
(connector service)
acts as a man-in-the-
middle between your
bot web API and the
connected channels

Test your bot with the emulator
The emulator helps
you to test your bot
easily online or offline.
Available for Mac,
Linux and Windows.

User interaction with Dialogs
Dialogs are a way of
wrapping an entire
“experience” into an
easily managed
interaction based on a
“chained” and
“conversational”
paradigm.
DEVOPS / IOT
User interaction with FormFlow
Although Dialogs are the basic
building block of a
conversation, it’s difficult to
create a “guided” conversation.
FormFlow creates Dialogs and
guides a User through filling in
a “form” while providing help
and guidance along the way.

How to make your bot “smart”
Cognitive Services enables
your bot to see, hear,
interpret and interact in
more human ways. It is
deeply integrated in the
Microsoft Bot Framework.

You must have LUIS.ai integration
LUIS is part of Microsoft
Cognitive Services
offering and can be
used for any device, on
any platform, and any
application scenario.
DEVOPS / IOT
LUIS: how do they do it?
One of the key problems in
human-computer
interactions is the ability of
the computer to understand
what a person wants, and to
find the pieces of
information that are relevant
to their intent.
