Overview

What is Apache Beam MCP Server?

The Apache Beam MCP Server is a Model Context Protocol server for managing Apache Beam data pipelines across multiple runners including Flink, Spark, Dataflow, and Direct. It provides a standardized API for data engineers, AI/LLM developers, and DevOps teams to create, monitor, and control pipelines.

How to use Apache Beam MCP Server?

Clone the repository, create a Python virtual environment (3.9+), install dependencies from requirements.txt, then start the server with python main.py --debug --port 8888. For runner-specific configurations, set CONFIG_PATH environment variable. Pipelines are submitted via HTTP POST to /api/v1/jobs with job parameters in JSON. Use the Python client library or curl for interaction.
