Description

A data system at a measurement facility performs many functions including facilitating data collection and flow, status and security monitoring, configuration management, data access, and many more. Each of these functions are critical in the generation, protection, and transmission of ARM data. The goal is to communicate the processes and systems used in facilitating secure data flow from an instrument to the Data Management Facility in order that users and infrastructure staff alike can see and understand how the integrity and availability of ARM data is provided.
