ArchiCraft: Solution Architecture Insights for AI Engineering #010 - Model Context Protocol - Bridging LLMs to Enterprise Data
This podcast episode introduces the Model Context Protocol (MCP), an open standard designed to solve the critical challenge of connecting Large Language Models (LLMs) with chaotic enterprise data systems. It demonstrates how MCP acts as a universal "bridge" for AI, using a detailed business case in financial reporting (XBRL) to illustrate how complex, real-world workflows can be automated securely and efficiently. Ultimately, the episode provides architects with a clear blueprint for using MCP to build a new generation of governable, composable, and truly intelligent enterprise applications.
Thank you for listening! ❤️ Build smart, Architect with intent.
