Talks

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) introduces a powerful approach for AI agent development by standardizing how AI models interact with external tools and resources.
This talk explores MCP's architecture, diving deep into its core capabilities: tool discovery and execution, resource management with URI templates, and dynamic prompt handling.
We'll examine how Spring AI MCP - Java MCP SDK, implementation transforms these specifications into practical agent capabilities, demonstrating how to evolve traditional AI applications into full-fledged agents that can interact with external systems, manage resources, and handle complex workflows through standardized interfaces.
Through live coding examples, we will learn how to combine the Spring AI framework with MCP to create agents that can effectively understand context, make decisions, and take actions across various external systems.
