Summary
In this chapter, we explored the concept of Streamable HTTP and how it differs from SSE. We learned that streaming allows for real-time data transmission, which is beneficial for applications that require immediate access to data, such as live events or large files.
Additionally, we implemented an MCP server that supports Streamable HTTP and demonstrated how to consume streaming data using the MCP SDK. We also discussed the importance of notifications in providing real-time updates to clients and how to handle them effectively.
In the next chapter, we’ll explain how you can use a low-level server API, as there are some use cases where you might want to do that.
