AWS MCP ServersFreemium

AWS Labs maintains a monorepo of specialized, open-source MCP servers that bring AWS best practices directly into AI-assisted development workflows, spanning infrastructure, data, AI/ML, cost management, and healthcare/life-sciences domains. Rather than one monolithic server, the project ships dozens of focused servers you install individually depending on the task: the AWS Documentation MCP Server for real-time official docs and API references, dedicated servers for Terraform/CDK/CloudFormation infrastructure-as-code, container and serverless platforms (ECS, EKS, Lambda), SQL/NoSQL databases (DynamoDB, RDS, Aurora), search and analytics (OpenSearch), messaging (SQS/SNS), and cost/billing analysis. Most servers install via uvx with a package name like awslabs.aws-documentation-mcp-server, run locally over stdio, and use standard AWS credential chains (IAM roles, profiles, or access keys) rather than exposing raw account credentials to the model. AWS also now offers a managed, remote "AWS MCP Server" (in preview) that combines full API coverage with pre-built agent SOPs, syntactically validated API calls, and complete CloudTrail audit logging for teams that want centralized governance instead of running servers locally. The Getting Started with Kiro/Cursor/VS Code/Claude Code sections in the repo provide one-click install configs for each server, making it straightforward to wire up only the AWS services a given project actually touches.
