Uber shares design of 'MCP Gateway' that wraps existing APIs as MCP tools, running 800 MCP servers and 5,000 tools (community report)

What happened

According to GeekNews, Uber has consolidated MCP integrations scattered across the company into a single 'MCP Gateway' that exposes existing APIs and native MCP servers in the same way. It currently runs more than 800 MCP servers and more than 5,000 tools. In this architecture, an MCP Registry manages discovery, ownership and activation settings, and a proxy layer relays requests.

Provider claims

The operating scale (more than 800 servers and more than 5,000 tools) is a community summary of Uber's own description.

Why it matters

It is a reference case showing the registration, ownership and access-management structure a large company needs when converting thousands of internal APIs into MCP tools for agents. Teams designing internal agent platforms may find it useful.
