ODGS Collibra Bridge

Transform your Collibra Business Glossary into active ODGS runtime enforcement schemas.

Collibra documents your data. ODGS enforces it.

The ODGS Collibra Bridge is an institutional connector that translates Collibra Business Glossary assets — terms, metrics, and data quality rules — into cryptographically addressable ODGS enforcement schemas. It bridges the gap between passive data cataloguing and active regulatory enforcement, making Collibra governance decisions mechanically executable at pipeline runtime.

Architecturally aligned with CEN/CENELEC JTC 25 and NEN 381 525 federated data sovereignty principles.

Install

pip install odgs-collibra-bridge

Quick Start

Python API

from odgs_collibra import CollibraBridge

bridge = CollibraBridge(
    base_url="https://your-org.collibra.com",
    api_token="your-api-token",
    organization="acme_corp",
)

# Sync Finance community → ODGS metric schemas
bridge.sync(
    community="Finance",
    output_dir="./schemas/custom/",
    output_type="metrics",
)

# Sync DQ rules → ODGS enforcement rules (HARD_STOP on violation)
bridge.sync(
    community="Data Quality",
    output_dir="./schemas/custom/",
    output_type="rules",
    severity="HARD_STOP",
)

CLI

# Sync using API token
odgs-collibra sync \
    --url https://your-org.collibra.com \
    --token YOUR_API_TOKEN \
    --org acme_corp \
    --community "Finance" \
    --output ./schemas/custom/ \
    --type metrics

# Push compliance results back to Collibra activity stream
odgs-collibra write-back \
    --log-path ./sovereign_audit.log \
    --url https://your-org.collibra.com \
    --token YOUR_API_TOKEN

Output Schema

      "content_hash": "a1b2c3..."
    }
  ]
}

Bi-Directional Write-Backs

The bridge supports Bi-Directional Sync: it parses your sovereign_audit.log offline and pushes compliance results back into the corresponding Collibra Asset's activity stream — creating a deterministic feedback loop for Governance Officers without compromising the air-gapped nature of the core ODGS protocol.

odgs-collibra write-back \
    --log-path ./sovereign_audit.log \
    --url https://your-org.collibra.com \
    --token YOUR_API_TOKEN
