Cloud-based Container / VPS Pattern

This pattern implements an isolated cloud-based development and execution environment for MCP servers using a container or dedicated virtual private servers (VPS) with comprehensive security controls and monitoring.

Overview

The Cloud-based Container / VPS pattern provides maximum isolation by running MCP servers in dedicated cloud instances that can be easily created, monitored, and destroyed. This approach is ideal for high-risk workloads or when complete isolation from other systems is required.

Architecture

This section will detail:

• Container/VPS provisioning and configuration automation
• Network security and access controls
• Multi-tenancy and resource isolation
• Monitoring and logging infrastructure
• Backup and disaster recovery procedures

Implementation

Comprehensive implementation guidance will include:

• Cloud provider selection and setup
• Infrastructure-as-code templates
• Security hardening procedures
• Monitoring and alerting configuration
• Cost optimization strategies

Use Cases

Perfect for production workloads, high-security environments, multi-tenant scenarios, and organizations that require complete isolation between different MCP deployments.
