Model Context Protocol
Data Science, Analytics and AI/ML
An open standard introduced by Anthropic in late 2024 for connecting AI assistants and large language models to external data sources, tools, and systems through a unified interface. It defines a client-server architecture so developers can build reusable 'servers' exposing resources, prompts, and tools that any compatible AI application can consume. It has been adopted across the AI industry to reduce the need for custom integrations between models and each external service.
