Description

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.

Description

Willow serves as a comprehensive enterprise platform designed to manage AI agents, tools, MCP servers, skills, and plugins. It facilitates the connection of various agents like Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Codex, Gemini, n8n, and customized agents to internal frameworks and SaaS applications such as Jira, GitHub, Slack, and databases via an MCP gateway. Each agent is assigned a human-linked identity, specific permissions, and an audit trail for accountability. Security teams are tasked with establishing policies while employees have the ability to self-service approved connectors, skills, and plugins as needed. Among its features are shadow AI discovery, PII redaction, prompt-injection inspection, app- and action-level permissions, as well as integrations for SSO, SCIM, and RBAC with platforms like Okta, Entra ID, and JumpCloud. Additionally, Willow offers capabilities for SIEM export, token and cost tracking, and operates background agents to enhance functionality. The platform is accessible in various deployment models, including SaaS, dedicated cloud, or on-premises within a customer’s VPC. With a SOC 2 Type II attestation and compliance with GDPR, Willow has gained traction and is currently utilized in production by notable companies such as Wix, Innovid, and Riskified, ensuring it meets high industry standards. This versatility and commitment to security make Willow a robust choice for organizations looking to harness the power of AI responsibly.
