Description
In the summer of 2005, the Technical Infrastructure Monitoring (TIM) system will
replace the Technical Data Server (TDS) as the monitoring system of CERN’s technical
services. Whereas the TDS was designed for the LEP, TIM will have to cope with the
much more extensive monitoring needs of the LHC era. To cater for this, the new
system has been built on industry-standard hardware and software components, using
Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE) technology to create a highly available, reliable,
scalable and flexible control system. A first version of TIM providing the essential
functionality will be deployed in the MCR in June 2005. Additional functionality and
more sophisticated tools for system maintenance will be ready before the start-up of
the LHC in 2007, when CERN’s technical infrastructure will be monitored from the
future CERN Control Centre.
