What you’ll learn:
  • The types of custom providers available
  • When to use each type
Beyond the pre-built integrations in the Metorial catalog, you can deploy your own custom providers. Choose from two deployment options based on your requirements.

​
Types of Custom Providers

​
Custom Providers

Upload your MCP server code and Metorial hosts it for you. Your code runs in Metorial’s infrastructure with automatic scaling and monitoring. Supported languages include TypeScript/JavaScript (Node.js) and Python.
Best for:
  • Custom business logic and internal APIs
  • Teams that want to focus on code rather than infrastructure
  • Rapid prototyping and deployment

​
External Providers

Connect any remote MCP server, including your own self-hosted MCP servers, to Metorial. Your server runs on your own infrastructure and Metorial connects to it via HTTP/HTTPS. You maintain full control over hosting, security, and deployment.
Best for:
  • On-premises requirements
  • Existing infrastructure you want to integrate
  • Sensitive data that must stay in your environment
