Compare Istio’s new ambient multicluster support with Gloo Mesh’s multicluster peering. Learn the similarities, key differences, and scalability trade-offs.

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is moving fast from experimental to enterprise-ready. I am working with a number of customers / prospects / community members who want to go beyond locally deployed stdio transport MCP servers to multi-tenant remote HTTP “MCP services”. The most pressing question is: How do we call upstream APIs on behalf of a user from our multi-tenant MCP servers when the call crosses trust domain boundaries?

Discover how Solo.io's enterprise version of kagent extends Kubernetes to turn cloud-native infrastructure into agent-native infrastructure.

Solo.io donates agentgateway to the Linux Foundation, creating the first AI-native gateway for secure, observable, and governed agent communication. Learn how agentgateway supports A2A and MCP protocols to power enterprise AI adoption.

Gloo Mesh 2.10 adds flat network support, traffic shifting, and policy enforcement for secure, scalable multi-cluster service mesh.

In this blog, we highlight some of MCP's foundational challenges, alternative proposals in the community, and sharing our opinion on what this should look like in enterprise environments. We know the MCP community is hard at work on revising the specification and we feel future updates will align better with our recommendations here.

MCP Services are the right path forward to enterprises building on the MCP protocol, but even with recent revisions to the MCP protocol, there are some things still left to be ironed out. This blog goes into some of those details.

Istio Ambient Mesh’s ztunnel delivers secure-by-default microservices communication and real-time traffic visibility - without sidecars. Learn how it boosts performance, simplifies management, and reduces costs while enhancing security and observability.
