AlibabaCloud DMS MCP Server

AI-powered unified data management gateway that supports connection to over 30+ data sources, serving as a multi-cloud universal data MCP Server to address cross-source data secure access in one-stop solution.

  • Supports full Alibaba Cloud series: RDS, PolarDB, ADB series, Lindorm series, TableStore series, MaxCompute series.

  • Supports mainstream databases/warehouses: MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, Oracle, SQLServer, Redis, MongoDB, StarRocks, Clickhouse, SelectDB, DB2, OceanBase, Gauss, BigQuery, etc.


Core Features

Provides AI with a unified data access layer and metadata access layer, solving through standardized interfaces:

  • Maintenance costs caused by data source fragmentation

  • Compatibility issues between heterogeneous protocols

  • Security risks from uncontrolled account permissions and non-auditable operations

Key features via MCP include:

  • NL2SQL: Execute SQL via natural language to obtain data results

  • Code Generation: Retrieve schema information through this service to generate DAO code or perform structural analysis

  • Data Retrieval: Automatically route SQL to accurate data sources for business support

  • Security: Fine-grained access control and auditability
