Why to run each MCP server on its own Fly Machine instead of your laptop: isolation, plus access to volumes, SQLite databases, and app internal state.
MCP servers can run in a variety of locations.
The Docker MCP Catalog and Toolkit announcement identifies a number of problems and potential solutions with running MCP servers on your laptop.
Running an MCP server on a Fly Machine is easy and provides an additional level of security and isolation. It can also provide access to resources that are not on your laptop such as volumes, sqlite databases, and your applicationās internal state.
We recommend that you start with deploying each MCP server on a separate machine and only explore other options if you have specific needs.
