      1. Getting started

        A major shortcoming of hosted MCPs was that they could not guarantee any sort of persistence. This meant that servers would lose all the context after they were restarted or the underlying image was updated. This made many MCP hosting solutions essentially useless for servers like MCP memory.

        To solve this problem, we added persisted volumes to our MCP server hosting.

        Image

        Due to the associated costs, this feature needs to be explicitly enabled and it is only available to paid users. However, for those who need persistence, it's a simple toggle that mounts /data volume that will persist between server restarts and even if the Docker image is updated.

        Compatible MCP servers

        Any server that needs to persist data and that allows to configure the path for storing data (most servers do) or defaults to /data. A few servers that we tested with:

        Technical details

        • There is no additional cost for paying users.

        • The volume is mounted at /data.

        • The provisioned volumes are set to 1GB and will auto expand up to 10GB with usage.

        Getting started

        To get started, simply deploy a server from our MCP registry and enabled "Persistent Storage" under MCP Deployments.
