Host remote MCP servers on Azure Functions
Thursday, 11 December, 2025
Learn how to host secure and scalable remote MCP servers on Azure Functions! Hosting MCP servers remotely allows others to access tools in your servers, not just agents running on your local machine. Azure Functions provides remote hosting for two flavors of MCP servers - those built with the Functions MCP extension or with the official MCP SDKs. In this week's Azure Friday, Lily talks about how to host the SDK flavor with Scott. Check it out if you're looking to build or have already built some servers with these SDKs and are looking for a place to remotely host them!
