Unlock the Power of the Catalog in AIDP Workbench

Geoff Fawcett-Oracle

A standout feature of Oracle AI Data Platform (AIDP) Workbench is its Catalog—a powerful, centralized hub for connecting, governing, and sharing data across Oracle Cloud and other providers. By consolidating metadata, security, and connectivity in one place, the Catalog lets data and solution engineers spend more time on insight and less on integration overhead.  

Key benefits  

• Centralized, role-based security: The Catalog uses OCI IAM roles to define fine-grained access control at the schema, table, or column level—so data remains protected and compliant.  
• Metadata and discovery: The Catalog harvests technical metadata and registers datasets in the Master Catalog—so teams can quickly discover and explore data using SQL commands or APIs.  
• Notebook-ready AI integration: Pre-configured connectors expose Oracle-hosted large language model endpoints, enabling quick LLM calls directly from governed datasets in notebooks.  

Keep learning 

• Watch the on-demand Oracle AIDP Essentials webinar series for a practical walkthrough of the Catalog and other core services.  
• Join the new AIDP Community to exchange best practices, attend expert sessions, and shape future enhancements.
