Overview
What is Azure Synapse MCP Server by CData?
A read-only MCP server that allows LLMs (like Claude Desktop) to query live Azure Synapse data via natural language questions, powered by the CData JDBC Driver for Azure Synapse.
How to use Azure Synapse MCP Server by CData?
Clone the repo, build with Maven, install and license the CData JDBC Driver, create a .prp file with connection properties, then configure Claude Desktop’s claude_desktop_config.json to point to the built JAR and .prp file. Run or refresh Claude Desktop to use the tools.

FAQ from Azure Synapse MCP Server by CData
Is this server read-only or does it support write/update/delete?
The README states this project builds a local, read-only MCP server. For full CRUD capabilities, see the CData MCP Server for Azure Synapse.
What runtime requirements are needed?
You need Java (to run the JAR), Maven (to build), and the CData JDBC Driver for Azure Synapse (requires installation and licensing). The driver is not bundled.
How does the server communicate with clients?
The server uses stdio transport, so it can only be used with clients running on the same machine as the server.
What authentication methods are supported?
The connection string can include OAuth (e.g., InitiateOAuth=GETANDREFRESH). OAuth-based sources will require browser authentication during setup.
Where does the data reside?
Data remains in Azure Synapse. The server queries live data; it does not store or cache any data locally.
