  • ​Model Context Protocol (MCP) standardizes how to provide context to LLM Agents, enabling streamlined integration of data services and tools. We'll cover the MCP architecture and dive into practical examples of using MCP with Data Services like Neo4j, Infrastructure APIs such as Neo4j Aura, and Agent SDKs like Google ADK. We'll also discuss the challenges MCP addresses, including security, statefulness, and deployment, along with existing resources and community initiatives like registries and marketplaces. This is a deep dive into the technical aspects of MCP and how it can be improve your development workflows.
