You can clone/restore/run on your local machine with debugging, and `azd up` to have it in the cloud in a couple minutes. The MCP server is secured by design using keys and HTTPs, and allows more options for OAuth using EasyAuth and/or API Management as well as network isolation using VNET. ## Use the MCP Extension for Azure Functions [Preview] You get a native Azure Functions experience turning code into MCP servers using the MCPTrigger. | Language (Stack) | Repo Location | |------------------|---------------| | Python | [remote-mcp-functions-python](https://github.com/Azure-Samples/remote-mcp-functions-python) | | TypeScript (Node.js) | [remote-mcp-functions-typescript](https://github.com/Azure-Samples/remote-mcp-functions-typescript) | | C# (.NET) | [remote-mcp-functions-dotnet](https://github.com/Azure-Samples/remote-mcp-functions-dotnet) | | Java | [remote-mcp-functions-java](https://github.com/Azure-Samples/remote-mcp-functions-java) | *Enhanced with APIM Serverless Gateway (+Entra, OAuth) | Language (Stack) | Repo Location | |------------------|---------------| | Python | [remote-mcp-apim-functions-python](https://github.com/Azure-Samples/remote-mcp-apim-functions-python) | ## Self-hosted MCP Servers on Azure Functions [* Public Preview!] You have the flexibility to host MCP SDK based servers on Azure Functions serverless compute platform. | Language (Stack) | Repo Location | |------------------|---------------| | Python | [remote-mcp-sdk-functions-hosting-python](https://github.com/Azure-Samples/mcp-sdk-functions-hosting-python) | | TypeScript (Node.js) | [remote-mcp-sdk-functions-hosting-node](https://github.com/Azure-Samples/mcp-sdk-functions-hosting-node) | | C# (.NET) | [remote-mcp-sdk-functions-hosting-dotnet](https://github.com/Azure-Samples/mcp-sdk-functions-hosting-dotnet) | *Enhanced with APIM Serverless Gateway and Policies | Language (Stack) | Repo Location | |------------------|---------------| | Python | [coming soon!]() |
