About Collibra Cloud sites
Collibra hosts, sets up, and manages the Collibra Cloud site, which lets you focus on your specific business needs. This solution is for Edge administrators who do not have Kubernetes experience or system administrators who want to reduce maintenance and infrastructure management. Collibra Cloud sites allow you to:
- Simplify implementation and maintenance.
- Integrate with cloud-native data sources out-of-the-box.
- Ensure you are always on the latest, most secure version via automatic Collibra Cloud site upgrades.
Collibra Cloud sites supports fewer features than customer-managed Edge sites to streamline management. As Collibra Cloud sites connect to data sources over the internet, some data sources are unavailable.
All Collibra Cloud sites are named Collibra Cloud site, as shown below:
