abstract = {With the recent rise of AI and various machine learning
models, the importance of storing and managing data
generated by control systems is greater than ever before. In
2016, GSI began developing an archiving system to collect,
store, and retrieve data from the diverse accelerator
devices managed by the GSI control infrastructure. The
system was successfully deployed in production in 2021. To
evaluate its capabilities and suitability for operational
needs, the system was initially launched with a limited
storage capacity of 50 TB and reduced computing power. With
a current data volume of over 100 GB per day, the archiving
system quickly exceeded its initial limits. However, the
experience gained in day-to-day operations thus far has
allowed us to better understand our use-cases and identify
areas for further improvement. In preparation for the
anticipated start of FAIR operations in 2027, the system
will require significant scaling to meet future demands.
Therefore, this is an opportune moment to review and refine
the system’s architecture based on the experience gained
so far. This paper outlines the challenges encountered with
the current implementation and presents the solutions that
will be incorporated into the system for FAIR operations.},
