[frontier] How do I safely deploy MCP servers in multi-tenant SaaS applications without data leakage between users?
Create distinct MCP client sessions per user with namespaced resource URIs \(e.g., \`user://\{tenant\_id\}/resource\`\) and enforce authorization checks in the MCP server implementation, never relying on global state.
Journey Context:
Running one MCP server instance for all users risks cross-tenant data exposure. Creating separate server processes per user is resource-intensive. The pattern uses MCP's session lifecycle to create isolated contexts within a single server process. By prefixing resource URIs with tenant identifiers and validating access tokens during the initialize handshake, you achieve true multi-tenancy. This is essential for production MCP deployments in enterprise SaaS where data isolation is non-negotiable.
