We present an architecture consisting of measurement devices, beamline data management and data repository to enable data management at the synchrotron facility ANKA. The operators perform some data management tasks manually and individually for each measurement method. In order to provide the functionality of a data repository it is necessary to collect the data, aggregate metadata and to perform the ingests into the data repository. The data management layer between the measurement devices and the data repository is referred to beamline data management (BLDM), which performs data collection, metadata aggregation and data ingest. Shared libraries contain functionality like migration, ingest or metadata aggregation and form the basis of the BLDM. The workflows and the current state of execution are persisted to enable monitoring and error handling. After data ingest into the data repository, implemented with the KIT Data Manager, archiving, content preservation or bit preservation services are provided for the ingested data. BLDM can connect the existing infrastructure with the data repository without major changes of routine processes to build a data repository for a synchrotron.
