MCP Server Hosting

Managed MCP Server Hosting Without the DevOps

Get an HTTPS endpoint, a custom subdomain, authentication, and analytics for your MCP server in minutes. No infrastructure to provision or maintain.

What's included

Everything a production MCP server needs

Every hosted server on MCPCore ships with the same production-grade defaults, so you never have to build this layer yourself.

HTTPS by default

Every hosted MCP server gets a valid TLS certificate automatically. No manual certificate management or renewal.

Endpoint provisioning

Create a server and get a live, callable endpoint immediately. No container images, no infrastructure to provision.

Custom subdomain

Every server is reachable at its own name.mcpcore.io address, ready to paste into any MCP client configuration.

Authentication

Choose Public, API Key, OAuth 2.0, or Bearer Token per server. Switch modes without touching your tool code.

Encrypted secrets

Store API keys and credentials encrypted with AES-256. Reference them in code as env.MY_KEY, never hardcoded.

Rate limiting

Protect your hosted MCP server from abusive traffic with built-in, per-server rate limiting.

Real-time analytics

Track requests, latency, and cost per tool as they happen, with daily and hourly breakdowns.

Error logs

Every failed call captures the full stack trace and input parameters so you can debug without guessing.

Uptime

Hosted MCP servers run on infrastructure built for continuous availability, monitored around the clock.

FAQ

MCP server hosting questions

What is MCP server hosting?

MCP server hosting means running your Model Context Protocol server on infrastructure someone else manages, instead of on your own machine or self-managed cloud instance. A hosted MCP server gets a public HTTPS endpoint, authentication, and monitoring without you having to set any of it up.

Do I need my own infrastructure to host an MCP server on MCPCore?

No. MCPCore provisions the endpoint, TLS certificate, and subdomain for you. You write your tool code in the browser and it is live immediately, with no servers, containers, or DNS records to manage.

Can I use a custom subdomain for my hosted MCP server?

Yes. Every server you create on MCPCore is reachable at its own name.mcpcore.io address by default, and that URL is what you paste into Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, or any other MCP client.

Is hosted MCP server traffic secure?

Every hosted endpoint runs over HTTPS, secrets are encrypted with AES-256, and you can require API Key, OAuth 2.0, or Bearer Token authentication per server before any tool call is accepted.

Can I move from a local MCP server to hosted MCP server hosting without rewriting my tools?

Tool code is plain JavaScript regardless of where it runs. Moving from local development to a hosted MCP server on MCPCore mainly means recreating your tools in the platform and pointing your AI client at the new endpoint.
