What Are MCP Servers in AI?

What are MCP Servers? A Beginner's Guide

Artificial Intelligence is more than just algorithms and models--it's an ecosystem. At the core of this ecosystem are compute backbones that power training, inference, data transfer and storage. And that's where MCP servers come into play.


MCP stands for Modular Compute Platform (in most AI infrastructure contexts). These servers are highly scalable, configurable compute nodes used in AI/ML environments, especially in large scale training or inference clusters.

Think of MCP servers as customizable hardware workhorses built to handle intense AI workloads.


  1. Built for Scale – These servers allow you to swap and scale CPUs, GPUs, memory, and storage based on your training or inference needs.

  2. AI-Optimized Performance – Ideal for running large models efficiently, with support for multi-GPU setups, high-speed networking, and fast data handling.

As AI continues to evolve, MCP servers will be the unsung heroes behind the scenes
