Session: Create and connect to your own MCP server in Java, with Quarkus
Speaker(s): Jan Martiška
Date/Time: Thursday, May 28th at 11:05 - 11:50 in Room E
Abstract: Model Context Protocol (MCP) has lately gained a huge amount of traction. But, as a Java developer, do you know how to easily create your own MCP server and then connect your AI-infused application to it?
Let's face it, many MCP servers nowadays are written in Python or TypeScript. Let's show that Java doesn't have to stay behind!
In this demo-focused session, I will demonstrate two concepts: how to build an MCP server and how to plug it into your application. For both parts, I will use Quarkus, because both these use cases have first-class support from Quarkus.
