MCP Mastery: Build, Secure, and Ship Model Context Protocol Servers track
Module 07 of 8~16 minPro

Deploying and Operating MCP Servers in Production

From localhost to always-on: streamable HTTP behind a reverse proxy with bearer-token auth and SSL, persistence and restart gotchas, the permission-persistence watcher hack, logging, health checks, and versioning on a VPS.


§  You will learn
  • Convert a local stdio MCP server to streamable HTTP and expose it safely behind a reverse proxy with bearer-token auth and SSL
  • Keep an MCP server always-on with a process supervisor, and handle the persistence and restart gotchas that bite production servers
  • Build the operational layer every production server needs: health checks, structured logging, and a versioning discipline that survives breaking spec changes
  • Apply the permission-persistence watcher pattern to keep an unattended agent (like a Telegram bot) approving tool calls across restarts
