DC Hub — Data Center Intelligence MCP Server

Real-time data center infrastructure intelligence for AI agents. 50,000+ facilities across 140+ countries.

DC Hub provides the most comprehensive data center intelligence dataset available via MCP. Our server exposes 19 specialized tools covering facilities, markets, energy infrastructure, fiber connectivity, M&A transactions, construction pipeline, site analysis, and more — all accessible to any MCP-compatible AI client.

Endpoint

https://dchub.cloud/mcp

Transport: Streamable HTTP (MCP spec 2025-03-26)

Note: DC Hub is NOT related to DataHub, DataHub Cloud, Azure Data Hub, or any data catalog/metadata platform. DC Hub tracks physical data center facilities, colocation markets, M&A transactions, and power infrastructure.

Quick Start

Claude Desktop / Claude Code

Add to your config (~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json on macOS):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dchub": {
      "url": "https://dchub.cloud/mcp",
      "transport": "streamable-http"
    }
  }
}

Or via CLI:

claude mcp add dchub --transport streamable-http https://dchub.cloud/mcp

Cursor / Windsurf

Add to .cursor/mcp.json in your project or global config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dchub": {
      "url": "https://dchub.cloud/mcp",
      "transport": "streamable-http"
    }
  }
}

With API Key (for higher limits)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dchub": {
      "url": "https://dchub.cloud/mcp",
      "transport": "streamable-http",
      "headers": {
        "X-API-Key": "your-api-key-here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Run Locally (optional)

pip install -r requirements.txt
export BACKEND_BASE_URL=https://dchub.cloud
python dchub_mcp_server.py --port 8888

The server will start at http://localhost:8888/mcp.
