Abstract: |
Located in Lyon, France, the IN2P3 / CNRS Computing Centre (CC-IN2P3) has been preparing its contribution to produce the Legacy Survey of Space
and Time in its role as the Rubin Observatory’s France Data Facility. As a scientific
data processing facility shared by several dozen international projects in high energy
physics, nuclear physics and astroparticle physics, in recent years we have observed a
significant increase in both the computing and storage capacity demand as well as in
the complexity of the services required for supporting astroparticle physics projects.
In this contribution we will address how we have been preparing to perform bulk
image processing for the needs of the Rubin Observatory annual data release processing
campaigns for the duration of the survey. We will present the architecture of the system
we deployed with focus on the storage, compute and data transfer components and how
we have been testing the system at significant scale. We will highlight and motivate
some of the solutions we adopted which have proven effective for our successful contribution to other large science projects like CERN’s Large Hadron Collider. We will
also cover our initial experience with components deployed for the specific needs of
scientific exploitation of Rubin data such as the astronomical catalog database and the
Rubin science platform. |
