Drem,io has launched the Dremio MCP Server, a solution that brings AI-native data discovery and query capabilities to the lakehouse. By adopting the open Model Context Protocol (MCP), Dremio enables AI agents to dynamically explore datasets, generate queries, and retrieve governed data in real time. Through MCP, Dremio natively integrates with leading AI models like Claude, enabling agents to seamlessly discover and query data with contextual understanding. Claude-powered agents can dynamically interpret user intent, invoke Dremio’s tools, and deliver trusted, real-time insights—all without manual integrations. “The Model Context Protocol is a critical advancement that allows AI systems like Claude to seamlessly interact with enterprise data systems,” said Mahesh Murag, Product Manager at Anthropic. “Dremio’s implementation of MCP enables Claude to extend its reasoning capabilities directly to an organization’s data assets, unlocking new possibilities for AI-powered insights while maintaining enterprise governance.” Powered by Dremio’s semantic layer – which provides a unified, governed view across all data sources – with the Dremio MCP Server AI agents gain seamless access to Dremio’s full data environment. This enables agents to: Discover datasets and metadata without manual integrations; Translate natural language into SQL queries and execute them directly; Automate workflows like reporting, customer segmentation, and operational analysis.
