Prototype to Production: Building Enterprise MCP and AI Agents with Templates
More than 95 percent of GenAI pilots fail to reach production not because of capability, but because of missing engineering discipline. This session presents a practical blueprint for bridging that gap. Using two open-source templates refined through real-world enterprise deployments, you will learn how to build Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers and AI agents that are production-ready from day one.
Through detailed code walkthroughs and live demonstrations, you will explore FastAPI-based MCP server architecture, streaming agent implementations with PostgreSQL persistence, and observability with Langfuse tracing. The session also covers Kubernetes deployment patterns, rootless container configurations, SSO integration, session management, and automated recovery strategies. Attendees will leave with production-grade templates, deployment manifests, and concrete engineering patterns that transform prototypes into reliable enterprise systems.
What You Will Learn
-
Proven architectural patterns for deploying enterprise-grade MCP servers and AI agents
-
How to implement observability, authentication, and failure recovery from the start
-
Practical deployment techniques using Kubernetes, OpenShift, and containerized environments
-
Access to open-source templates with full documentation, ready for immediate use
Who Should Attend
AI engineers, software architects, DevOps specialists, and enterprise developers responsible for taking AI systems from proof of concept to production at scale.
