Modules

Overview

Dataristix has a modular architecture. The Core application consists of:

  • Dataristix application

    The Windows application hosting app plugins

  • Dataristix Service

    The back end service responsible for running tasks and coordinating data flow

Each connector consists of

  • App Plugin

    The user interface for connector configuration that is loaded into the Dataristix application

  • Connector Service

    The backend service that communicates with data sources and data sinks and listens to commands sent by the Dataristix Service

These software modules are intially installed in a bundle but they can also be installed or updated separately. Installer downloads are provided within the Dataristix application.
