Sessions

Session: Going Stateless: Scaling MCP Servers to the Cloud Native Java and HTTP
Speaker(s): Daniel Oh
Date/Time: October 5th • 14:25-14:50 in Giovanni
Abstract: Join us for a deep dive into the evolution of the Model Context Protocol (MCP) as we explore the shift from stateful, session-heavy architectures to stateless, cloud-native deployments.
In this session, we will examine how the latest updates to the MCP specification introduce a stateless HTTP foundation, enabling MCP servers to function as lightweight, independent microservices. We’ll discuss the operational advantages of this paradigm shift, including simplified load balancing and the ability to scale down to zero when traffic stops.
Additionally, we will demonstrate how combining this stateless architecture with cloud-native Java—specifically using Quarkus—creates the ultimate stack for high-density AI infrastructure. You’ll learn how to leverage Ahead-of-Time (AOT) compilation and reactive routing to build highly specialized, memory-efficient MCP tools that start instantly. Whether you are building database-lookup tools or internal API proxies, you'll walk away with the knowledge to design predictable, scalable, and reliable AI systems for enterprise production environments.
