Overview

What is Presto MCP Server by CData?

Presto MCP Server by CData is a read-only Bridge between Large Language Models (such as Claude Desktop) and live Presto data. It wraps the CData JDBC Driver for Presto, exposing Presto tables as SQL models through the Model Context Protocol so LLMs can answer natural‑language questions without writing SQL.

How to use Presto MCP Server by CData?

Clone the repository, build the JAR with Maven (mvn clean install), download and license the CData JDBC Driver for Presto, generate a JDBC connection string using the driver’s GUI utility, create a .prp property file with your connection details, and add the server to your client’s config (e.g., claude_desktop_config.json). The server runs over stdio and must be on the same machine as the client.

FAQ from Presto MCP Server by CData

Is this server read‑only?

Yes. This project builds a read‑only MCP server. For full CRUD and action support, check the free CData MCP Server for Presto (beta) linked in the README.

What dependencies are required?

Java, Apache Maven (to build), and the CData JDBC Driver for Presto (must be downloaded, installed, and licensed).

How is the connection configured?

Use the JDBC driver’s connection‑string builder to create a JDBC URL, then place it in a .prp file along with driver path, driver class, and optional table filters.

Where does the data live?

Data remains in the Presto source. The server does not store or cache data; it queries live via the CData JDBC Driver.

What transport does the server use?

It uses stdio transport, so it only works with clients running on the same machine as the server.
