Configure AI agents

ScaleOut Digital Twins are available to AI agents through a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server running in your ScaleOut cluster. MCP provides a standard way for AI applications to discover and use data and tools. An AI application that supports MCP can connect to your digital twins without custom integration code.

ScaleOut also supports OAuth Client ID Metadata Documents (CIMD), which let compatible applications identify themselves during the OAuth authorization process. ScaleOut handles authentication and controls access to the digital twin data, so you can connect a compatible AI application using established protocols.
