SAP Build Introduces MCP Servers for Enhanced AI-Powered Development

SAP introduces MCP Servers to enhance development with Cloud Application Programming Model (CAP), SAP Fiori Elements, and SAPUI5. MCP is an open standard that allows AI models to interact with external tools, data, and workflows, providing a universal bridge between AI coding assistants and SAP tools. SAP MCP tools ensure generated code follows best practices, provides guided development, and ensures consistency across the tooling portfolio. The MCP Server for CAP is being released as an open-source project, licensed under Apache-2.0.

MCP tools ensure that generated code follows best practices, provides guided development, and ensures consistency across the tooling portfolio. This initiative aims to streamline the development process, making it more efficient and error-free.

The introduction of MCP Servers aligns with SAP’s broader strategy to enhance data security and compliance. By providing a robust framework for AI-assisted development, SAP is positioning itself as a key player in Europe’s quest to reduce reliance on U.S.-based cloud giants.

SAP’s investment in MCP Servers underscores its commitment to innovation and digital sovereignty. The release of this open-source project signals a shift towards more transparent and collaborative development practices within the SAP ecosystem.
