 1. freeCodeCamp just published a new handbook on how to build your own custom Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. The entire MCP paradigm was just invented 7 months ago, so let me explain how it works. Before MCP, you needed to write custom connector code for each data source your LLM used – such as calendars, map APIs, and sensor data streams. Sure – tools like LangChain helped with this. But MCP makes things so much simpler. You just lay out how your data is structured. That way when an LLM connects, it can figure out how to get whatever data it needs all on its own. This MCP approach is an excellent complement to the Retrieval Augmented Generation technique developers were using last year.

 5. Monte Carlo simulations are one of the most powerful tools data scientists have in their toolbox. Named after a famous casino in Monaco, Monte Carlo methods involve creating detailed models of a situation with many uncertain factors. By running the model many times with different random inputs, you can see a wide range of possible outcomes, and can learn more about how the system behaves. This tutorial will give you more insight into Monte Carlo methods and show you how they're used for everything from financial modeling to designing circuit boards.

This course will not only teach you everything tested on the exam – it will also ground you in cloud engineering concepts. So what is SysOps? Well, it's like a traditional SysAdmin (System Administrator) role that pretty much every company has – but for cloud servers. This freeCodeCamp course will cover Networking, Logging, Metrics, Events, Security, Load Balancing, Serverless Architecture, and more. If you want to take the plunge and learn all these skills, this course has got you covered.
