About MCP Postgres Server

What is MCP Postgres Server: Seamless Failover, Zero Downtime?

MCP Postgres Server integrates PostgreSQL with the Model Context Protocol (MCP) for Cursor, enabling secure, high-availability storage of model contexts. Designed for reliability, it ensures automatic data access continuity during failures without service interruptions, leveraging PostgreSQL’s robust architecture and MCP’s orchestration capabilities.

How to Use MCP Postgres Server: Seamless Failover, Zero Downtime?

Get started quickly with these steps:

  1. Deploy the stack: Clone the repository and launch via Docker Compose: docker-compose up -d
  2. Configure in Cursor: Navigate to MCP settings and add a command-based connection pointing to docker exec -i mcp-postgres-server node dist/index.js
  3. Monitor health: Use docker logs mcp-postgres-server to troubleshoot startup issues or restart with docker-compose restart
