Session: Plotting a Path to Opening and Controlling the Boundary Between Agents and Real World Systems

MCP started as a protocol to formalize the interface between stochastics systems (LLMs) and the unforgiving world of deterministic systems (APIs). MCP is seeing breakout engagement and adoption across the industry because it creates a way to make transformers more useful by giving them access to real world data and real world tools. In this session we will explore the role that MCP plays in agentic workflows and the critical considerations when building servers to provide optimal results. This session looks at practices to drive the performance and effectiveness of agents while balancing very real concerns around security, observability and privacy.
