MCP Servers on Kubernetes: Deployment Patterns, Scaling, and What Breaks - Kunal Das, Cast Ai

Tuesday June 9, 2026 5:40pm - 6:05pm IST

Scarlet 2&3

Most MCP talks focus on the protocol or the AI side. This one is about the infrastructure underneath.
I run MCP servers on Kubernetes, and I've hit enough weird failure modes to have opinions about it. This talk covers how to deploy MCP servers as containerized workloads: health checks that actually make sense for long-lived agent connections, resource limits that don't starve your servers mid-conversation, and what happens when an agent decides to call 200 tools in a loop.
I'll walk through deployment patterns I've tested. Sidecars vs standalone pods, service mesh routing for multi-tenant setups, and HPA configurations that don't flap every time an agent goes quiet. I'll also cover the stuff that broke: connection drops during rolling updates, memory leaks from unbounded context, and the time a misconfigured liveness probe took down every MCP server in the cluster.
Expect a live demo on a real cluster, real YAML, and zero slides about what MCP stands for.
