Summary

CData Connect AI is presented as a managed Model Context Protocol gateway that enables Databricks Agent Bricks agents to access live SAP ERP data without ETL replication, while enforcing existing SAP permissions at request time. Agent Bricks is Databricks’ platform for developing and governing enterprise AI agents, and its support for external MCP servers allows Connect AI to be registered through Databricks Marketplace and governed as a Unity Catalog MCP service. Deployment requires a Unity Catalog-enabled Databricks workspace, selected preview and beta capabilities, SAP OAuth 2.0 support, and OData services for the SAP modules involved. The setup involves authenticating SAP in Connect AI, creating an OAuth application, connecting the MCP server in Databricks, and configuring the agent to use SAP tools, with access typically based on the designated Connect AI user’s source-system privileges. Unity Catalog and Connect AI provide complementary audit logging, while potential applications include finance reconciliation using FI data and supply-chain or procurement workflows using SD and MM records, including governed write-back actions.
