The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open protocol that allows Large Language Models (LLMs) to interact with external tools and services in a standardized way.

• Autoscaling – scale to zero when idle, scale out with usage
• Pay-per-second billing – pay only for the compute you use
• Ease of use - accelerate developer velocity and easily bring any container and run it on GPUs in the cloud
• No infrastructure management – focus on your model and app
• Enterprise-grade features – out of the box support for bringing your own virtual networks, managed identity, private endpoints and more with full data governance
