Frequently asked questions

1

Is IBM Informix MCP Server by CData read-only?

Yes, this project builds a read-only MCP server. For full read, write, update, delete, and action capabilities, check out the free CData MCP Server for IBM Informix (beta).

2

What are the runtime dependencies?

Java (to run the JAR), the CData JDBC Driver for IBM Informix (licensed), and an AI client that supports MCP (e.g., Claude Desktop). No additional databases or services are required.

3

Where does the data actually reside?

The data remains in the IBM Informix database. The server queries that data live through the CData JDBC Driver; it does not copy or cache data locally.

4

How does authentication work?

Authentication is configured within the JDBC connection string (e.g., OAuth, username/password) using the CData JDBC Driver’s Connection String utility. The driver handles the credentials.

5

Are there any transport or deployment limitations?

Yes. The server uses `stdio` transport, so it can only run on the same machine as the AI client (e.g., Claude Desktop). It does not support remote or network-based connections.
