Authoring resource with Luis

Azure LUIS is a great cognitive service that requires two resources to be provisioned in order to work properly. The predictive resource can be created in almost any Azure region, but the authoring resource is limited to specific regions. The authoring resource is where the luis.ai site will save and 'train' your configuration; you'll then publish that configuration and it will be used by the predictive engine as you submit your requests. You can think of these two as training and competition. The authoring is where you lift weights, work on your cardio, practice your forms; the predictive is the applied results of your training.
