Description
At MAX IV we have established a high-performance data acquisition (DAQ) system capable of keeping pace with the high rate detectors enabled by the brightness of the fourth-generation source. Photon counting and charge integrating detectors, together with sCMOS cameras, are unified within a single DAQ framework. Detector data are streamed to a central Kubernetes cluster mounting IBM Storage Scale (GPFS) storage, with Tango providing overall system control. Live feedback from all detectors and cameras is available as standard, and the system is extended with on-the-fly data reduction capabilities through the "Dranspose" framework - a horizontally scalable, distributed data analysis pipeline. We give an overview of the detector suite at MAX IV and describe the DAQ and processing infrastructure, with emphasis on its demonstrated performance for live data streaming and on-the-fly reduction across a range of applications.
