Discover the Model Context Protocol (MCP), an open standard acting as a universal adapter for AI agents to interact with external systems. This video explains how connecting your Agent Development Kit (ADK) agents to MCP servers provides access to real time capabilities like filesystems, databases, Google Maps, and Google Cloud Genmedia services. We also explore benefits such as modularity, enhanced security, reduced hallucinations, and simplified deployment for scalable AI applications.
