Supported data sources for data source registration

Collibra Data Intelligence Cloud supports several databases to register as a data source. Depending on your data source, you can use Collibra-provided Catalog connector, or your own JDBC driver.

Your own JDBC drivers

You can use your own JDBC drivers.

Note We cannot guarantee that other data sources or driver versions work correctly. If you use a generic JDBC driver or an unsupported version, data ingestion, data profiling and sample data may not work as expected.

Authentication and permissions

Both ingestion and profiling (including sampling and advanced data type detection) rely on JDBC drivers. Those drivers authenticate to the data sources as a user registered in that data source with specific permissions.

Collibra supports several authentication methods, including credentials, NTLM, CyberArk and Kerberos. If you use one of the Collibra-provided Catalog connectors, look at the authentication methods provided in your connector details page.

Tip If you need more detailed information, we recommend to contact your JDBC driver provider.
