Overview
SqlDBM + Collibra: governance that starts at design time
SqlDBM is a cloud-native data modeling platform used by data teams to design, document, and deploy logical and physical models for Snowflake, Databricks, BigQuery, Redshift, and other modern platforms.
The SqlDBM integration for Collibra Data Catalog syncs model metadata (databases, schemas, tables, columns, descriptions, and business definitions) directly into Collibra. Your catalog then reflects the model your engineers actually designed, not a stale copy.
Why it matters
- Single source of truth: Definitions written during modeling flow into Collibra, so stewards don’t re-enter them by hand.
- Governance from day one: New and changed objects reach the catalog as the model evolves, before they’re discovered in production.
- Shared language: Data engineers work in SqlDBM and governance teams work in Collibra, both on the same metadata.
- AI-ready foundations: Well-documented, governed models give analytics and AI initiatives trusted context.
How it works
- Connect your SqlDBM project to your Collibra instance.
- Map SqlDBM objects to Collibra assets and domains.
- Sync model metadata to Collibra and keep it current as the model changes.
Requirements: An active SqlDBM subscription and a Collibra Data Catalog instance.
