The Model Context Protocol (MCP) brings Unix-style loose coupling to AI Agents.

I built a visual explainer (JSON-LD metadata included) using Google Gemini’s new Canvas feature—with an embedded Knowledge Graph to illustrate.

Check it out:

What’s going on here?

Prompts are being processed through queries executed against a Knowledge Graph (KG)—all thanks to loose coupling. The target KG could reside locally, live on the Web, or be part of the vast Linked Open Data (LOD) cloud.

Architecturally, as depicted in the attached image.

BTW -- @Google Gemini can generate pretty accurate diagrams using @drawio XML!

An example of what’s now possible—thanks to our sophisticated MCP Server for JDBC, Oracle’s native JDBC Driver, and Anthropic's Claude Desktop as the MCP client:

This week’s edition of my @LinkedIn newsletter shines a light on the impact of the Model Context Protocol (MCP) across multiple computing eras—leading right up to today.

We’ve arrived at a moment where loose coupling principles are cool (and super useful) again.

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) acts as a universal translator between LLMs and data sources, eliminating complex platform-specific requirements. Our new open source MCP server for ODBC enables seamless integration of any ODBC-accessible data into RAG pipelines.

Referenced below is a Grok-based screencast showcasing how note-taking is evolving, now that LLMs eliminate the tedium of crafting machine-computable notes in RDF using any of its associated notations (e.g., JSON-LD).

Here’s a DataTwingler AI Agent configuration in Markdown, designed for interacting with UniProt’s massive Knowledge Graph, which consists of 210 billion machine-computable statements of fact, meticulously curated by domain experts.

What does this mean?

210,122,358,019 factual statements, curated by domain experts, in subject, predicate, and object sentence form—all accessible via a live SPARQL Query Service endpoint.

Whoa!

UniProt’s latest publicly accessible Knowledge Graph now contains 210,122,358,019 RDF triples—powered by our #VirtuosoRDBMS open-source edition, live on the Web and available to AI Agents, Apps and Services across life sciences, genomics, bioinformatics, and related fields.

A variant of the same local LLM demo on a MacBook Pro, but this time using Private LM instead of LM Studio, which was used in the previous demo.

The pendulum is swinging back toward the edge of the global connectivity mesh we call the #Internet—a familiar cycle, much like the shift from time-shared mainframes to the PC and Mac era.
