Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service MCP Server Integration
Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) is a fully managed container orchestration service provided by Amazon Web Services (AWS) that simplifies running Kubernetes on AWS. By abstracting away the complexity of the Kubernetes control plane—including its installation, upgrades, patching, and availability—EKS allows developers and platform teams to focus on deploying and managing containerized applications rather than on the underlying infrastructure. The EKS API provides programmatic control over the lifecycle of Kubernetes clusters and their associated resources. Core capabilities include creating, describing, and deleting clusters, managing node groups (EC2-based) and serverless compute (AWS Fargate profiles), configuring identity providers for authentication, enabling encryption for Kubernetes secrets at rest, and installing or updating managed add-ons such as CoreDNS, kube-proxy, and the VPC CNI. Typical enterprise use cases involve deploying microservices architectures, building scalable machine learning pipelines, running batch data processing jobs, and establishing consistent, compliant Kubernetes environments across development, staging, and production.
Technical Integration & Multi-Client Support
The Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service MCP Integration translates REST paths, operational endpoints, and tool schemas into standardized Model Context Protocol JSON-RPC 2.0 messages. This allows AI assistants like Claude Desktop, Cursor IDE, VS Code (Cline/Roo Code), and Zed Editor to run tool queries and execute functions seamlessly.
Add stdio configuration block to claude_desktop_config.json.
Configure workspace root at .cursor/mcp.json or Settings -> MCP.
Insert server JSON payload into cline_mcp_settings.json.

DigitalOcean API MCP
The DigitalOcean API is a comprehensive, RESTful interface provided by DigitalOcean, a leading cloud infrastructure provider focused on simplifying cloud computing for developers, startups, and enterprises. It serves as the programmatic backbone for managing the entire DigitalOcean ecosystem, enabling users to provision, configure, and control cloud resources such as Droplets (virtual private servers), Kubernetes clusters, managed databases, networks, storage volumes, and application platforms. Core capabilities include full lifecycle management of these resources, from creation and scaling to monitoring and deletion, mirroring the functionality available in the DigitalOcean control panel. Its primary use cases range from automating infrastructure setup for CI/CD pipelines and enabling infrastructure-as-code practices to supporting dynamic application scaling and resource optimization for SaaS products, e-commerce sites, and development environments. The API is designed for both developers seeking to automate their cloud operations and businesses that require programmable, scalable cloud infrastructure without the complexity of larger hyperscale providers.
