What is the architecture of Data Manager?

General architecture

Data Manager contains components that work both on your network and in the cloud:

• Source data – information from products or files stored on your local network, behind the firewall.

• Local server – two components run on your local server, behind the firewall:

• The Data Manager Adapters Client brings source data into Data Manager from your products or files.

• The Cleanse and Import Client can be used to Cleanse and Import your data through scheduling software, or manually using the command-line.

• Assets – a cloud‑based feature set that includes both Data Manager and schemas:

  • Data Manager – once your data is uploaded using the Adapters client, you can modify, cleanse, and reconcile this data to make it complete, current, and correct. Data Manager has three sections:

    • Getting Started – directs you through to key parts of Data Manager depending on your access.

    • Object Classes – configure how you fetch your data; apply transforms to change raw data, cleanse data by removing unwanted records and finally merge data to create Data Manager objects that contain the most trustworthy information from multiple data sources. Create advanced searches to filter your data or for use in schemas uploads.

    • Data visualization – use saved advanced searches to create dashboards to display the results visually.

  • Schemas – after you have cleansed and imported your data, you can bring Data Manager objects into Assets schemas and convert them into Assets objects. From schemas, you can bring information back into Data Manager using the Schema data source.

Local network connectivity

Data Manager relies on local network connectivity. If you are connecting to the Adapters client or the Schema Adapter client, configure your local network to allow access.

Suggested URL ranges and ports:

1. Connect the Adapters client to Data Manager over port 443 using:

   • https://api.atlassian.com/jsm/data-manager/workspace/{WorkspaceId}/adapters/*

   • https://api.atlassian.com/jsm/data-manager/workspace/{WorkspaceId}/app/*

2. Connect the Schema Adapter to Data Manager over port 443 using:

   • https://api.atlassian.com/jsm/assets/workspace/{WorkspaceId}/*

3. Alternatively, connect both the Adapters client and Schema Adapter over port 443 using:

   • https://api.atlassian.com/*

4. To connect your source data apps or files to the Adapters client, refer to your app documentation and network configuration to identify the appropriate endpoints.
