MCP or Not?

Cloud & DevOps with MCP servers

Cloud platforms, observability and infrastructure. 6 of 8 have an official server from the vendor.

AWSOfficial

AWS publishes an official, managed remote MCP server at aws-mcp.us-east-1.api.aws/mcp, documented on docs.aws.amazon.com and listed in Anthropic's directory as Anthropic verified. Docs search needs no sign-in; AWS API calls use OAuth or SigV4 with your IAM permissions. Read-only mode requires the SigV4 proxy.

DatadogOfficial

Datadog publishes an official remote MCP server, hosted by Datadog and documented on docs.datadoghq.com. It connects to Claude, Cursor and VS Code, signs in with OAuth, and covers logs, metrics, traces, monitors and incidents. Write tools exist but require a separate org-level MCP Write Access setting.

RailwayOfficial

Railway publishes an official remote MCP server at mcp.railway.com, documented on docs.railway.com and listed in Claude's directory as Anthropic verified. It signs in with OAuth, and a local server runs through the Railway CLI. It can redeploy services and create projects, and no read-only mode is documented.

CloudflareOfficial

Cloudflare publishes an official remote MCP server for its whole API at mcp.cloudflare.com/mcp, documented on developers.cloudflare.com and in github.com/cloudflare/mcp. It signs in with OAuth or an API token. Anthropic's directory lists a different Cloudflare server (Workers bindings) that the repo marks deprecated.

Microsoft AzureOfficial

Microsoft publishes an official Azure MCP Server, documented on Microsoft Learn and built in the open microsoft/mcp repo. It runs locally with Entra ID and Azure RBAC, can change live resources, and has an optional read-only flag. A remote Azure Resource Manager server also exists. No Claude connector was found.

GrafanaOfficial

Grafana Labs publishes an official open-source MCP server, grafana/mcp-grafana, that you run yourself over stdio, SSE or streamable HTTP. It uses a service account token and covers dashboards, Prometheus, Loki, alerting, incidents and more. A --disable-write flag provides read-only mode.

ProxmoxCommunity only

no official Proxmox MCP server from Proxmox Server Solutions is verified. Community servers such as ProxmoxMCP-Plus run locally with a Proxmox API token and can create, start and delete VMs and containers. Treat the token like a root-level credential and scope its role tightly.

UniFi (Ubiquiti)Community only

no official UniFi MCP server from Ubiquiti is verified, and Ubiquiti's GitHub org has no MCP repository. The leading option is the community project sirkirby/unifi-mcp, which runs locally against your controller with a local admin login and can change network settings behind a preview-then-confirm step.
