Amazon Quick expanded its Model Context Protocol support by allowing private MCP servers to connect through Amazon Virtual Private Cloud. Previously limited to publicly accessible MCP servers, this allows organizations to securely extend AI workflows to internal tools and proprietary applications.

Customers can link MCP servers running on Amazon EC2, AWS Fargate, or other private compute resources without exposing them to the internet. All interactions between Quick and MCP servers route securely inside the VPC. This capability is available in all AWS regions offering Amazon Quick and improves enterprise data security and workflow integration.
