Adding a Jobserver to Collibra Data Intelligence Cloud
When you want to ingest data, you need the Jobserver service in your environment, whether it's an on-premises environment or a cloud environment. From a network point of view, we recommend in both situations to install the Jobserver service as close to the data source as possible for optimal ingestion performance. This often means that you will have to install an on-premises Jobserver service
Note If you use the Jobserver from your Collibra Data Intelligence Cloud environment, we recommend that you only use it for the ingestion of Excel or CSV files.
Do not use this Jobserver to ingest databases, your environment can become unresponsive. To ingest databases, make sure that your Jobserver meets the system requirements.
This section describes how to install and add the Jobserver service to your Collibra Data Intelligence Cloud environment.
When you install an on-premises Jobserver for use in a Collibra Data Intelligence Cloud environment, you also have to install Collibra Console, to manage and configure this Jobserver. You can install both services on the same server.
Additionally, you can install the Monitoring service to monitor the Jobserver service.
You can find the version of your Collibra Data Intelligence Cloud environment at the bottom of the sign-in window, for example 2021.10.3. Always use the latest available on-premises installer to install the Jobserver.
