Description
The SPD (Spin Physics Detector) facility is currently under construction as part of the NICA complex at JINR. In parallel with the physical infrastructure, the experiment’s software ecosystem is being developed to meet the growing need for large-scale simulation of physical processes.
As an international collaboration, SPD leverages the distributed computing resources contributed by its member institutes for data processing. To unify these geographically dispersed resources, SPD has implemented a suite of systems and services. These enable the organized storage and processing of experimental data across both JINR and partner computing facilities, forming a coherent distributed computing environment for the experiment.
This environment is already operational, supporting full-scale production simulations requested by physics working groups. Throughout 2025, the system has simulated over 1 billion physics events and produced several hundreds terabytes of data. This talk presents an overview of the SPD distributed offline data processing framework.
