What's next?

Tip If you don't install these services on the same node, then you have to add the Jobserver node to your on-premises Collibra Console.

Configure the connection between the Jobserver and your Collibra Platform environment by creating a connection from the Jobserver to the Collibra service. In this configuration, the on-premises Jobserver will poll the Collibra service for ingestion tasks.

Note You can also add the Jobserver service to the DGC service. In this configuration, the Collibra service from your cloud environment will send ingestion tasks to the on-premises Jobserver. For security reasons, this configuration may not be allowed by your organization's network infrastructure department
