Databricks MCP Marketplace – Collibra MCP Server

Overview

The Collibra Model Context Protocol (MCP) server enables AI/ML developers, business users, and LLMs to access and engage with governed metadata and business context information in the Collibra Platform. This additionally simplifies the integration of Collibra with agents built on LLMs and connected to other agents in complex workflows.

The MCP server provides a standardized access layer that addresses three key challenges: inconsistent or low-quality context retrieval for LLMs, fragmented integration workflows, and lack of standardized communication between Collibra and other information sources.

This offering, in particular, relates to the Databricks MCP Marketplace offering. This will only be available to customers who have an active Databricks license which is integrated into their Collibra offering.
