FastMCP Cloud, introduced by Prefect, is a new platform designed to simplify the deployment of MCP servers, which have become a standard for building such servers but faced challenges in production deployment. The platform aims to streamline the process, offering a one-click solution from a GitHub repository to a live, authenticated, and shareable MCP endpoint without the need for intricate configurations or expertise in authentication. FastMCP Cloud supports both FastMCP 1.0 and 2.0, providing seamless integration for existing projects and features like native JSON-RPC protocol observability, automated CI/CD for server deployment with each pull request, and built-in authentication for easy server sharing and third-party client connections. The platform is positioned as a foundation for future agentic AI developments, focusing on creating optimal, context-aware interfaces necessary for autonomous users, and is currently free during its beta phase, with an open-core business model that ensures the platform complements, rather than substitutes, its open-source framework.
