ACS Launches Industry-First Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server for Collibra, Bringing AI-Powered Automation to Data Governance

Reston, VA—Assured Consulting Solutions (“ACS”), a leader in data governance and artificial intelligence, today announced the launch of the first-ever Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for the Collibra Platform. This groundbreaking integration connects AI assistants and large language models directly to Collibra, enabling natural language interaction with data governance tools and dramatically simplifying discovery, asset management, and administration while making data-centric behaviors accessible to users across all technical skill levels.

Transforming Data Governance

The ACS Collibra MCP Server bridges the gap between Collibra’s robust governance capabilities and the intuitive, conversational interfaces of AI platforms. Complex, technical workflows can now be completed with plain language requests, accelerating adoption and improving data stewardship, and users can now perform sophisticated data discovery, asset management, and lineage analysis using natural language commands.

Our MCP server doesn’t just automate tasks, it fundamentally changes how people interact with their data catalog. What once required deep technical knowledge can now be accomplished in seconds through a simple conversation with an AI assistant.
— Steve Willett, CTO of ACS

Key Capabilities

The ACS Collibra MCP Server provides end-to-end governance functionality, including:

Intelligent Search & Discovery

  • Natural language search across all Collibra resources (assets, domains, communities)

  • Advanced filtering with faceted search and aggregations

  • Automated asset type distribution reporting and analytics

  • Highlighted search results showing exact term locations

Streamlined Asset Management

  • Conversational asset creation with automatic validation

  • Bulk asset operations for large-scale data onboarding

  • Real-time asset updates and relationship management

  • Full lineage visualization and analysis

Simplified Administration

  • Community and domain creation through natural language

  • Relationship management between data assets

  • Attribute validation and assignment verification

  • Import job monitoring and status tracking

Enterprise Security & Authentication

  • Multiple authentication methods including OAuth2 and certificate-based

  • Secure credential management with encrypted storage

  • Configurable session timeouts

  • Role-based access control integration

Proven Time and Efficiency Gains

Early adopters can expect measurable productivity improvements:

  • Faster data discovery

  • Faster asset creation and cataloging

  • Less training time for new Collibra users

  • Increase in governance adoption rates

Previously, creating a comprehensive asset distribution report required hours of manual navigation through Collibra’s interface, along with dashboard creation or integration with an external reporting tool. Now, I simply ask our AI assistant, and seconds later I have the full visualization.
