Manta Flow Informatica EDC Architecture
Manta Flow for Informatica EDC has two major components.
- Manta Flow CLI—Java command line application that extracts all scripts from source databases and repositories, analyzes them, sends all gathered metadata to the Manta Flow Server, and finally, processes the generated export for Informatica EDC
- Manta Flow Server—Java server application that stores all gathered metadata inside its metadata repository, transforms it to a form suitable for import to Informatica EDC, and provides it to its visualization or third-party applications via API
The following diagram illustrates Manta Flow for Informatica EDC architecture, components, and interactions with third-party resources.
Both components can be deployed to the same physical/virtual server and even to the same server as Informatica EDC provided that there are sufficient resources available. Manta UI is accessed through a web-based interface, so there is no need to install anything on the end-user machine.
