Overview

What is Sybase IQ MCP Server by CData?

Sybase IQ MCP Server by CData is a read-only MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that allows LLMs like Claude Desktop to query live Sybase IQ data using natural language. It wraps the CData JDBC Driver for Sybase IQ, which exposes the source as relational SQL models, and makes that data available through a simple MCP interface.

How to use Sybase IQ MCP Server by CData?

Clone the repository, build the JAR with Maven (mvn clean install), download and license the CData JDBC Driver for Sybase IQ, configure the connection string, then create a .prp file with properties like JdbcUrl, DriverPath, and Prefix. Add the server to your Claude Desktop config file (claude_desktop_config.json), specifying the Java command and paths to the JAR and .prp file. The server uses stdio transport and must run on the same machine as the client.
