Introducing MCP for Aura: Hosted MCP, built into every Aura instance

MCP for Aura, introduced by Neo4j, streamlines the process for AI clients to access and interact with graph databases hosted on Neo4j Aura without the need for additional infrastructure setup. This hosted Model Context Protocol (MCP) server is integrated at no extra cost across Free, Professional, and Business Critical tiers, with Virtual Dedicated Cloud support forthcoming. It simplifies the connection process by eliminating the need for developers to manage separate servers and credentials, facilitating AI applications like Claude Desktop to query graph data seamlessly. Through a human-in-the-loop OAuth authentication, AI clients can access tools enabling schema exploration, read-only queries, and controlled read-write capabilities. This setup allows AI clients to interact with data securely, understanding the graph schema and executing queries without altering data unless explicitly permitted. The initiative is part of Neo4j's broader strategy to enhance AI's data interaction capabilities, offering an accessible framework for developers to integrate AI with graph databases efficiently.
