Beamlime @ ESS Lund

[SimonHeybrock]

General notes

• Each instrument has its own network + associated user network.
• One VM per instrument.
  • VMs do not have access to 100 Gbit.
• Hutch PC different in YMIR vs real instrument
  • Hutch PC is not considered trusted.
• DAQ network, accessible by all instruments, Kafka broker is here

Beamlime (aka Live data reduction)

Kafka -> MonitorDataService -> Kafka2 ---- DashboardService(Webserver)
Kafka -> DetectorDataService -> Kafka2 --/

Next steps

• Try smaller and larger VMs. How well does it scale?
• Use Kafka2 in Docker initially.
• Kareem will make a VM for DREAM.

Questions and future considerations

• NICOS has controls for justbinit, should we avoid replicating the mechanism?
