Deep dive into Model Context Protocol (MCP)

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) standardizes how AI agents connect to external data and tools.

Moving beyond local experiments, this talk explores advanced MCP architectures: local vs. remote server deployments, advanced human-in-the-loop features, and hosting and scaling strategies for remote MCP servers. With Java code we will walk through MCP features, highlighting how to use them in AI agents.
