Before you connect
Questions about OceanBase.
The practical details behind the request, access and result.
What can I do with the OceanBase MCP?
You can use natural language to manage your distributed database clusters, browse tenants, and check resource usage stats. It gives your AI agent the ability to perform infrastructure tasks that usually require manual navigation in a cloud console.
How do I use OceanBase for database auditing?
The Connector allows your agent to list all databases within specific tenants and retrieve detailed metadata. This makes it easy to audit your data assets and ensure your infrastructure matches your documentation.
Can the OceanBase MCP show me my resource usage?
Yes. Your agent can pull aggregate resource statistics across your entire organization. This helps you monitor CPU, memory, and storage usage to plan for future growth or identify bottlenecks.
Is the OceanBase MCP good for managing multi-tenant databases?
It is specifically designed for that. You can list tenants within clusters and get detailed metadata for each one, making multi-tenant resource allocation much easier to manage via chat.
How do I connect OceanBase to my AI agent?
First, subscribe to the Connector on Vinkius. Then, provide your OceanBase Access Key ID and Secret in your AI client's configuration. From there, you can start asking your agent questions about your clusters and databases.
Can I use OceanBase to see my database projects?
Yes, the Connector includes capabilities to list all projects in your account. This helps you maintain a unified view of your database ecosystem and quickly find the right project for your current task.
How do I find my OceanBase Access Key and Secret?
Log in to your OceanBase Cloud console, go to [Security] → [Access Keys], and you will find your unique Access Key ID and Secret Key there. Ensure you keep them confidential.
Can I list databases for a specific tenant through this server?
Yes. Use the list_databases capability with the cluster ID and tenant ID. Your agent will retrieve the full list of logical databases belonging to that specific resource pool.
Is it possible to check organization-wide resource usage?
Yes! Use the get_resource_stats capability to retrieve aggregate statistics across your OceanBase account, helping you monitor total CPU, memory, and storage consumption.
