Description

MCPs (Model Context Protocol) is an open source standard for connecting AI assistants to the the systems where data lives. But you probably already knew that if you have followed the recent hype around this topic after Anthropic made their announcement end of 2024.
To learn more about that MCPs are not that magic, but enable "magic" new use cases to speed up efficiency of engineers we have invited Dana Harrison, Staff Site Reliability Engineer at Telus. Dana goes into the use cases he and his team have been testing out over the past months to increase developer efficiency.
In our conversation we also talk about the difference between local and remote MCPs, the importance of keeping resiliance in mind as MCPs are connecting to many different API backends and how we can and should observe the interactions with MCPs.
