Vendia MCP Gateway

Vendia MCP Gateway is a powerful integration tool that bridges the gap between Large Language Models (LLMs) and your data. It provides a secure, managed service for handling MCP requests with built-in governance and observability.

  • Free Tier: Connect AI applications to your Amazon S3 buckets through Storage Connections, API Catalogs, and remote MCP Servers.
  • Pro Tier: Everything in the free tier with increased connection limits and deployment in region of choice.
  • Enterprise Tier: Everything in the pro tier along with full access to all Vendia capabilities, including the ability to create custom operational data models, integration of analytical data sources and on platform file connectivity. Enterprise also includes increased limits and real-time data syncronization across regions to support data sovereignty.

Large Language Models are revolutionizing how we interact with data, but their true potential is often gated by the inability to securely and efficiently access real-time, high-fidelity enterprise data. Traditional data integration methods for AI are costly, complex, and lead to stale data, inhibiting real-time insights and trusted AI outputs. Vendia enables AI applications to securely access, query, and analyze data across across a wide modality of data in real-time.

Key Features

  • Single Endpoint Access: Access data and remote services through one standardized MCP Gateway endpoint, ensuring broad compatibility & future-proofing your AI integrations
  • Centralized Management: Configure and manage all remote connections to S3 buckets, SaaS Apps via APIs, and third-party MCP Servers from the Vendia
  • Multiple LLM Compatibility: Works with Claude, Mistral AI: Le Chat, OpenAI, and other popular LLM platforms that support MCP
  • GraphQL-Powered: Leverages Vendia’s native GraphQL APIs for efficient data retrieval, allowing LLMs to precisely request only the data they need, optimizing query efficiency for AI operations
  • Multi-Format Support: Access both operational (GraphQL) and analytical (SQL/Iceberg) data interfaces directly in Vendia, empowering LLMs with the most current information and eliminating the latency common with traditional ETL processes
  • Standards-Based Authorization: Fully supports the MCP authorization specification for interoperable, secure access control and seamless integration with AI tools
  • OAuth2 Integration: Full OAuth2 support for secure authentication flows
  • Secure MCP Operations: All MCP protocol operations run through authenticated, encrypted endpoints
  • Full Tracabililty: Trace Agentic activity across systems and tools

Available MCP Tools

The Vendia MCP Gateway provides different sets of MCP tools depending on your tier:

How It Works

The Vendia MCP Gateway creates a seamless bridge between AI applications and your distributed Vendia data through a four-layer architecture:

Protocol Layer: Standard Model Context Protocol enables AI applications to discover and interact with your data using familiar patterns. The open MCP standard allows AI applications to seamlessly discover and interact with your Vendia data using familiar, standardized patterns, reducing integration effort.

Service Layer: A managed service handles MCP protocol operations and OAuth authentication. This fully managed service removes infrastructure complexities, handling scalable request processing.

Access Layer: AI applications gain real-time access to GraphQL operations, SQL analytics, file, S3 buckets, SaaS Applications, and remote S3 servers while respecting your existing security policies.

Data Layer: Vendia offers an optional data layer that lets customers bring their data onto the platform with a fully customizable data model. The data layer provides multi-region replication, ensuring data integrity, real-time synchronization, and fine-grained control for redacting PII. This creates a trustworthy, always-up-to-date single source of truth for powering AI systems.

Architecture Benefits

No Data Duplication

Unlike traditional approaches that require copying data to AI platforms, Vendia MCP Gateway provides direct access to your source data, eliminating sync delays and reducing storage costs.

Preserved Data Sovereignty

Your data remains in your controlled Vendia workspaces while still being accessible to authorized AI applications, maintaining governance and compliance requirements.

Future-Proof Integration

Built on open standards (Model Context Protocol), ensuring compatibility with emerging AI tools and platforms without vendor lock-in.
