Title: Evolution of the Data Quality Monitoring and Prompt Processing System in the protoDUNE-SP experiment

Conference ·

The DUNE Collaboration currently operates an experimental pro-gram based at CERN which includes a beam test and an extended cosmic ray run of two large-scale prototypes of the massive Liquid Argon Time Projec-tion Chamber (LArTPC) for the DUNE Far Detector. The volume of data col-lected by the single-phase prototype (protoDUNE-SP) amounts to ~3PB and the sustained rate of data sent to mass storage is O(100) MB/s. Data Quality Monitoring was implemented by directing a fraction of the data stream to the protoDUNE prompt processing system (p3s) which is optimized for continuous low-latency calculation of the vital detector metrics and various graphics including event displays. It served a crucial role throughout the life cycle of the experiment. We present our experience in leveraging the CERN computing environment and operating the system over an extended period of time, while adapting to evolving requirements and computing platform.
