Overview
What is Oracle MCP Server by CData?
CData's read-only Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that enables LLMs like Claude Desktop to query live Oracle data using natural language. It wraps the CData JDBC Driver for Oracle and exposes the database as relational SQL models through a simple MCP interface.
How to use Oracle MCP Server by CData?
Clone the repository, build the JAR with mvn clean install, download and license the CData JDBC Driver for Oracle, create a .prp file with your JDBC connection string, then configure your MCP client (e.g., Claude Desktop's claude_desktop_config.json) to point to the JAR and .prp file. The server runs via stdio on the same machine as the client.

FAQ from Oracle MCP Server by CData
Is this server read-only?
Yes, this server is read-only. For full create, read, update, and delete capabilities, CData offers a separate beta MCP Server for Oracle.
What dependencies are required?
You need Java, Maven, and the CData JDBC Driver for Oracle (available for download and trial licensing from CData).
What transport does the server use?
The server uses stdio transport, so it can only be used with clients running on the same machine.
How do I troubleshoot connection issues?
Verify your connection string using the CData JDBC Driver's Connection String utility, ensure the driver is properly licensed, and fully quit and restart your client (e.g., Claude Desktop) after configuration changes.
Where can I get support?
For connection issues, contact the CData Support Team. For MCP server usage or feedback, join the CData Community.
