Microsoft MCP Gateway
The Microsoft MCP Gateway serves as an open-source reverse proxy and management interface for Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, facilitating scalable and session-aware routing along with lifecycle management and centralized oversight of MCP services, particularly within Kubernetes setups. Acting as a control plane, it adeptly directs requests from AI agents (MCP clients) to the corresponding backend MCP servers while maintaining session affinity, effectively managing multiple tools and endpoints through a singular gateway that prioritizes authorization and observability. Additionally, it empowers teams to deploy, update, and remove MCP servers and tools through RESTful APIs, enabling the registration of tool definitions and the management of these resources with security measures such as bearer tokens and role-based access control (RBAC). The architecture distinctly separates the management of the control plane, which includes CRUD operations on adapters, tools, and metadata, from the data plane's routing capabilities, which support streamable HTTP connections and dynamic tool routing, thus providing advanced features like session-aware stateful routing. This design not only enhances operational efficiency but also fosters a more secure environment for managing AI services.

Peta
Peta serves as an advanced control plane for the Model Context Protocol (MCP), streamlining, securing, governing, and overseeing how AI clients and agents interact with external tools, data, and APIs. This platform integrates a zero-trust MCP gateway, a secure vault, a managed runtime environment, a policy engine, human-in-the-loop approvals, and comprehensive audit logging into a cohesive solution, enabling organizations to implement nuanced access controls, safeguard raw credentials, and monitor all tool interactions conducted by AI systems. At the heart of Peta is Peta Core, which functions as both a secure vault and gateway, encrypting credentials, generating short-lived service tokens, verifying identity and compliance with policies for each request, managing the MCP server lifecycle through lazy loading and auto-recovery, and injecting credentials during runtime without revealing them to agents. Additionally, the Peta Console empowers teams to specify which users or agents can access particular MCP tools within designated environments, establish approval protocols, manage tokens, and review usage statistics and associated costs. This multifaceted approach not only enhances security but also fosters efficient resource management and accountability within AI operations.
