Architecture overview ANVA 4/5 is the beating heart of your business operations. On this page you will discover how to integrate the hybrid cloud architecture of ANVA solutions into your application landscape. This is how you realize your own ANVA ecosystem based on the highest possible quality, continuity and reliability.
The diagram above shows, based on our hybrid cloud setup, the positioning of ANVA 4/5 and adjacent ANVA solutions. Together with your linkable peripheral applications, these form the heart of the ANVA ecosystem.
Target architecture
To set up your own ANVA ecosystem, you combine ANVA 4/5 with various ANVA partial solutions. In addition, you link ANVA 4/5 to ANVA partner solutions and other applications to create one collaborative ecosystem. Predictable, scalable, secure and stable.

Guidelines Apply this method of extracting:
When you want to reuse data from ANVA 4/5 in bulk elsewhere If outgoing one-way data is sufficient for your application When a data refresh rate of about 10 minutes is sufficient If you want to work locally or offline, complementary to cloud processing When you need an intermediate database or data warehouse in-house To perform queries at high volume and frequency This solution is available through three options:
1. ANVA Extract (raw data).
Installed by an ANVA employee Export in CSV format 2. ANVA Data Platform - Operational Data Store (raw data).
Free to use for ANVA administrators Various output options Contains raw and unstructured data from ANVA4/5 Both record data and setup data Read more on this module page 3. ANVA Data Platform - Datamart (DM).
Free to use for ANVA administrators Various output options Contains modeled relational data from ANVA 4/5 (checked, merged, structured and enriched) Both record data and setup data
