What is okctl MCP Server?

The okctl MCP Server is a management interface for OceanBase database clusters running on Kubernetes. It simplifies complex database operations like cluster deployment, tenant management, and backup configuration through a standardized protocol.

How to use okctl MCP Server?

The server works by executing commands through the underlying okctl CLI tool. You can interact with it directly through the MCP protocol or via a web interface that connects to the server.

Use Cases

Ideal for database administrators who need to manage OceanBase clusters in Kubernetes environments, especially for multi-tenant scenarios requiring frequent scaling or backup operations.

Key Features

Cluster ManagementFull lifecycle management of OceanBase clusters including creation, scaling, updating and deletion.
Tenant ManagementComprehensive tenant operations including creation, scaling, password changes, and primary/standby switchovers.
Backup Policy ManagementConfigure and manage automated backup policies for your OceanBase clusters with pause/resume capabilities.
Component ManagementInstall and update various OceanBase components in your Kubernetes environment.

Pros and Cons

Advantages
Simplifies complex OceanBase operations through a unified interface
Kubernetes-native solution with automatic scheduling and resource management
Comprehensive feature set covering clusters, tenants and backups
Standardized MCP protocol enables integration with various clients
Limitations
Requires Kubernetes environment setup
Dependent on okctl CLI tool installation
Some operations are irreversible (e.g., cluster deletion)
Needs proper Kubernetes access permissions

Getting Started

Prerequisites Setup
Ensure you have Python 3.10+, uv package manager, okctl CLI, and Kubernetes access configured.
Server Configuration
Configure the MCP server in your settings file with the correct path to the server directory.
Start the Server
Launch the server using the configured command. The server will be available through the MCP protocol.

Usage Scenarios

Deploying a New ClusterWhen you need to set up a new OceanBase database cluster in your Kubernetes environment.
Scaling a TenantWhen your application needs more database resources to handle increased load.
Configuring Automated BackupsWhen you need to ensure your database has regular backups for disaster recovery.
