Qlik Expands MCP Availability Across AWS and Databricks Marketplaces

Qlik announced expanded availability of its Model Context Protocol (MCP) server in AWS Marketplace and Databricks Marketplace. The move lets customers connect AI assistants and agents to Qlik's governed data, analytics context, lineage, calculations, and transformation capabilities within the environments they already use. Qlik MCP exposes Qlik at the engine, tool, and agent levels, enabling natural-language querying and faster data pipeline development without duplicating analytics logic. Databricks customers can purchase Qlik solutions through the Databricks Marketplace using Universal Commits. The launch builds on the general availability of Qlik's agentic analytics experience and MCP server earlier in 2026 and extends Qlik's reach into AWS AI environments including Amazon Bedrock. Josh Good, VP of Corporate Strategy at Qlik, said customers want agent frameworks to work with trusted business data and existing metrics.
