CTERA announced it is the first hybrid cloud storage provider to support the Model Context Protocol (MCP), enabling AI assistants to access enterprise data directly.
- This integration allows AI models, such as Anthropic's Claude, to securely and on-demand retrieve necessary context from CTERA's global file system.
- The MCP support streamlines access to unstructured data for AI workflows, eliminating the need for data duplication or manual transfers.
- CTERA's hybrid cloud architecture ensures data remains within the enterprise's control while being accessible to AI models via the protocol.
- This development facilitates a new paradigm for AI assistants to leverage vast amounts of enterprise data for enhanced capabilities and informed decision-making.
