What you get
Faster deployment
Define your BigQuery connection once, then add more MCP tools as needed through simple config updates. No code required.
Rapid iteration
Build team or use-case specific tools rapidly by adding new queries and parameters to your config. Deploy updates in minutes, not days.
Enterprise governance
All database access goes through MintMCP Gateway with full observability, authentication, rate limiting, and audit trails.
Why MintMCP gateway
Centralized governance
Unified authentication, audit logging, and rate control for all database MCP connections.
One-click deployment
Instantly enable database MCP for AI teams via MintMCP's standardized gateway without manual server setup.
OAuth + SSO enforcement
Automatic enterprise authentication wrapping for database MCP endpoints.
Host stdio servers on MintMCP instead of running locally
Containerized servers become accessible to clients like ChatGPT without local installations. Better risk management and security posture without requiring users to run servers on their machines.
Observability and control
Real-time dashboards for monitoring usage, detecting anomalies, and maintaining SLA compliance.
Enterprise hardening
High availability, security, and compliance alignment transform MCP from developer utility to production-grade infrastructure.
Supports shared and per-user auth
Flexibility to configure service accounts at the admin level or enable individual OAuth flows. Secrets remain protected while users gain access, with centralized revocation capabilities.
Granular tool access control
Configure tool access by role. For example, enable read-only operations and exclude write tools like create and delete.
Use cases
Conversational analytics on petabyte-scale data
Enable teams to query billions of events and user interactions through natural language—AI agents analyze engagement patterns, content performance, and user behavior without writing SQL on massive datasets.
Fraud detection with cross-source analysis
Let AI agents investigate suspicious transactions by joining financial data with external feeds and unstructured sources through natural language—detecting fraud patterns across petabyte-scale data without manual queries.
Marketing analytics and attribution
Enable marketing teams to analyze campaign performance, customer segments, and attribution paths by asking questions in natural language—AI agents query BigQuery's marketing data warehouse without SQL expertise.
Other supported databases
Connect to 30+ other database types including SQL, NoSQL, and cloud-native databases
