Description
Since more than two decades, relational database design and implementations have been satisfying data management needs in the CERN Accelerator Sector. The requirements always covered a wide range of functional domains from complex controls systems configuration data to the tracking of high-volume data acquisitions. The requirements to store large data sets have increased by several orders of magnitude between the consecutive epochs from SPS to LEP to LHC. So far, scalability has been ensured by following the hardware and software technology. Looking ahead –towards CLIC for example-, will we still be able to continue the same route or will this strategy fail eventually? This presentation will outline some of these issues in the different domains and raises the questions that have to be addressed in due time.
