Collibra Edge Site and Lineage Harvest (Power BI) sitting on same VM/server?

Hello Collibra Folks,
We’re looking to spin up an Edge Site on an Azure linux VM and would like to know whether we could also put our Power BI Lineage Harvester on the same VM. Can this be done and what considerations (scheduling, both use HTTPS over 443, etc.) should we take to ensure this functions properly? Thanks !

Hi,

Can someone tell whether firewall ports for HTTPS over 443 need to be opened bi-directional? or Outgoing is enough?

Regards,

And by extension: Will the techlin harvester functionalities merge completely with edge in the nearby future?

I just noticed that the release notes of the upcoming 2023.02 release mention public beta of functionality that enables Power BI technical lineage creation via Edge. It seems like a separate harvester installation won’t be necessary anymore https://productresources.collibra.com/docs/collibra/latest/Content/ReleaseNotes/to_latest-release-cdic-cloud.htm

Hey Tomas, I also noticed this in 02.2023 but it’s mentioned as an Edge beta feature at the moment…can any Collibra rep seeing this thread comment on this beta feature’s current maturity and expected roadmap for replacing lineage harvester for Power BI?

Hi Hasan, the lineage harvaster is a java client which should not be interfering with the edge; it’s not a server.
We are running it concurrent with a jobserver instance. Make sure you allocate enough memory though.

We’re following a similar deployment model…thanks Tom!
