Session
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard for connecting AI assistants to the systems where data lives, including content repositories, business tools, and development environments. This talk explores practical implementation patterns for building robust MCP servers in Python, covering architecture decisions, error handling strategies, and real-world deployment considerations. You'll learn to move beyond basic examples to production-grade implementations that can reliably serve AI applications at scale.
