From Prompts to Agents: Supercharging Spring Boot with AI and MCP

AI in modern applications must go beyond simple prompts to deliver real value—it needs to reason over your data, respect context, and integrate with external systems. In this fast-paced 90-minute workshop, you’ll learn how to power Spring Boot applications with Spring AI. We’ll start with chat completions using ChatClient, then ground responses with Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). From there, we’ll extend the application with Tools and the Model Context Protocol (MCP)—standardizing how AI models call APIs, query data, and orchestrate real-world workflows. By the end, you’ll walk away with a working Spring AI project and a clear roadmap for building production-ready AI agents..
