About Databricks MCP Server
Connect your Databricks workspace to any AI agent and take full control of your data intelligence platform and lakehouse orchestration through natural conversation.
LangChain's ecosystem of 500+ components combines seamlessly with Databricks through native MCP adapters. Connect 8 tools via the Vinkius and use ReAct agents, Plan-and-Execute strategies, or custom agent architectures — with LangSmith tracing giving full visibility into every tool call, latency, and token cost.
What you can do
- Cluster Monitoring — List all compute nodes and retrieve detailed information for specific clusters to audit health and capacity limits
- Job Orchestration — List all configured workflows and jobs, and monitor recent executions to verify data pipeline statuses
- SQL Warehouse Management — Enumerate explicitly configured SQL Serverless warehouses and track their active operational boundaries
- Unity Catalog Exploration — List root catalogs and detailed schemas/databases to identify exactly where your structured data resides
- Identity Oversight — Fetch profile information for the authenticated user or service principal to verify active workspace permissions
- Run Auditing — Retrieve chronological logs of job runs to identify precise points of failure in your complex data workflows
The Databricks MCP Server exposes 8 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to LangChain in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
