Data Provisioning server

The Data Provisioning server automates the provisioning and management of enterprise data assets by connecting your AI Agents to Data Marketplace.
This MCP server bridges the gap between data discovery and data utility by automating the access request process. It connects AI agents to Cloud Data Marketplace (CDMP), allowing them to initiate governed provisioning workflows for enterprise data assets. By standardizing the path from finding data to using data, this server ensures that data democratization is balanced with strict governance. It requires valid business justifications for every access request.
