Connect Valkey to Cursor

Enable Cursor to access your Valkey data through secure, governed MCP servers—no manual queries or engineering bottlenecks

How it works

1. Connect your database

Provide your Valkey connection details. We'll securely connect to your data source.

2. Define your MCP tools

Configure the tools and data available to your AI agents.

3. Deploy your MCP server

We convert your config into a production-ready MCP server with enterprise governance.

How to connect

Connect your Valkey database

  • Address and port: Valkey server endpoint
  • Authentication credentials: Username and password for authentication
  • Database selection: Optional database number
  • GCP IAM authentication: Optional Google Cloud IAM authentication for Memorystore for Valkey
  • Configure data access: Define which Valkey commands and key patterns are available to AI agents

Link your PostgreSQL MCP to Cursor

  • 1.Open Cursor settings (⌘,)
  • 2.Navigate to Features → MCP Servers
  • 3.Add your MintMCP Gateway endpoint
  • 4.Authenticate with your organization credentials
  • 5.Use AI-powered database queries while coding

Other supported AI clients

One-time setup connects Valkey to all your AI tools

What you get

Faster deployment

Define your Valkey connection once, then add more MCP tools as needed through simple config updates. No code required.

Rapid iteration

Build team or use-case specific tools rapidly by adding new queries and parameters to your config. Deploy updates in minutes, not days.

Enterprise governance

All database access goes through MintMCP Gateway with full observability, authentication, rate limiting, and audit trails.

Why MintMCP gateway

Centralized governance

Unified authentication, audit logging, and rate control for all database MCP connections.

One-click deployment

Instantly enable database MCP for AI teams via MintMCP's standardized gateway without manual server setup.

OAuth + SSO enforcement

Automatic enterprise authentication wrapping for database MCP endpoints.

Host stdio servers on MintMCP instead of running locally

Containerized servers become accessible to clients like ChatGPT without local installations. Better risk management and security posture without requiring users to run servers on their machines.

Observability and control

Real-time dashboards for monitoring usage, detecting anomalies, and maintaining SLA compliance.

Enterprise hardening

High availability, security, and compliance alignment transform MCP from developer utility to production-grade infrastructure.

Supports shared and per-user auth

Flexibility to configure service accounts at the admin level or enable individual OAuth flows. Secrets remain protected while users gain access, with centralized revocation capabilities.

Granular tool access control

Configure tool access by role. For example, enable read-only operations and exclude write tools like create and delete.

Use cases

Cache inspection and session analysis

Enable developers to investigate cached data, session states, and key-value patterns through natural language queries—AI agents inspect Valkey data structures without manual Redis command syntax.

Performance analysis and debugging

Let operations teams analyze cache hit rates, memory usage patterns, and key expiration through conversational queries—AI agents access Valkey metrics and data without learning Redis monitoring commands.

Queue and stream monitoring

Enable teams to investigate message queues, pub/sub channels, and stream data by asking questions naturally—AI agents inspect Valkey messaging patterns without Redis Streams expertise.

FAQs

Yes. MintMCP Gateway is SOC 2 compliant and uses OAuth-based authentication for all database MCP interactions.
