SAP on Azure MCP Server (TypeScript Implementation)

The SAP on Azure MCP Server is a purpose‑built Model Context Protocol (MCP) service that bridges the gap between AI assistants and two of the most critical enterprise platforms: SAP HANA and Microsoft Azure. By exposing a rich set of tools over standard MCP transports—STDIO, HTTP, and Server‑Sent Events (SSE)—the server allows an AI assistant such as Claude to perform real‑time database queries, manage virtual machines, and adjust network security groups without leaving the conversational interface. This eliminates the need for developers to switch contexts, write custom integration code, or manually run command‑line utilities.

For developers working on hybrid cloud environments, the server offers a single, typed TypeScript implementation that guarantees compile‑time safety and modern ECMAScript features. The toolset includes:

• SAP HANA integration: Execute SQL queries, retrieve system metrics, and manage database objects directly from the assistant.
• Azure VM lifecycle management: Start, stop, and query the status of VMs across resource groups.
• Azure Network Security Group (NSG) operations: Create, update, or delete NSG rules to secure traffic flows.
• Resource monitoring: Gather CPU, memory, and disk usage statistics for both SAP HANA nodes and Azure VMs.

These capabilities are packaged as discrete MCP tools that the AI can invoke on demand, enabling developers to prototype infrastructure changes, perform troubleshooting, or generate dynamic reports—all through natural language.

In practice, the server is ideal for scenarios such as continuous delivery pipelines where an AI assistant can automatically spin up a test SAP HANA instance, run integration tests, and tear it down, or for incident response where a support engineer asks the assistant to stop a problematic VM and open a diagnostic session. The HTTP transport makes it straightforward to expose the server from a container or Kubernetes pod, while STDIO support lets Claude Desktop launch it locally with minimal configuration.

What sets this MCP server apart is its deep integration with both SAP HANA and Azure, combined with a fully typed TypeScript codebase that eases maintenance and future feature addition. By unifying database management, cloud resource control, and monitoring under the MCP umbrella, it empowers developers to build smarter, more responsive AI workflows that cut across traditional silos.
