I've spent much of this year thinking about how to help teams adopt AI. MCPs have become a big part of that journey because all of a sudden, it seems like every company, even those who previously refused to expose an API, now has an MCP.
While this is great for end users, you need a strategy for protecting the various MCPs in use. One way to achieve this is to deploy a centralized gateway where you can apply governance controls. As a bonus, your developers get to add just one MCP server config, and all tools from target MCPs, GitHub, Jira, Linear, Notion, you name it, will be accessible via the unified MCP.
Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Gateway can help you do this. It sits in front of your MCP servers and presents MCP clients with a single endpoint where security teams can enforce organizational policy. Here's what that might look like:
If that looks like your end goal, lets start with some theory first!
