Description

​​As data rates and the need for multi-modal measurements increase so do the requirements for automated collection and curation of the associated meta-data.  At NSLS-II we begun to developed a suite of tools for high-level data acquisition and management to address this need. This talk is an overview of the architecture, components in the system: caproto, ophyd, bluesky, and databroker.   These parts each work as stand-alone libraries but are co-designed to work seamlessly together via the Event Model.
