MCP Observability
Unizo's Observability MCP Server provides a unified, agent-friendly interface for accessing and managing log data across integrated monitoring systems. Built on the Model Context Protocol (MCP), this server enables AI agents and LLM clients to interact with structured log data, perform log analysis, and support proactive security and operational insights across multiple observability platforms.
Designed for modern DevOps, SRE, and security automation, this guide outlines installation, tool reference, and runtime configuration required to use the Unizo Observability MCP Server.
Overview
The Unizo Observability MCP Server enables seamless integration of monitoring and logging systems with AI agents through a standardized interface that abstracts the complexity of different observability platforms.
Key Benefits
- Unified Log Management: Streamline log analysis across systems and platforms with a single API interface that normalizes log data from different sources
- AI Agent Compatibility: Built to integrate seamlessly with Claude, GPT, and other agents that speak the MCP protocol for automated log analysis and monitoring
- Structured Data Access: Navigate complex log hierarchies with service-aware filtering, metadata enrichment, and comprehensive search capabilities
- Real-time Monitoring: Access live log streams with severity-based filtering, distributed tracing integration, and comprehensive audit trails
- Security & Compliance: Maintain audit trails, correlation tracking, and secure access patterns for regulatory compliance and security analysis
