Development of Infrastructure for BM@N Software Complex

The BM@N experiment, as part of the NICA complex, produces a substantial quantity of physics data, necessitating the implementation of a sophisticated infrastructure for the software systems providing efficient storage, processing, and management of the data. In order to address these challenges, a comprehensive set of information systems has been developed. The complex includes an information system representing the Unified Condition Database (UniConDa) that stores and provides necessary parameters of experiment systems; the Geometry Database for operating with information on geometric models of detectors; the COnfiguration Online Platform (COOP) for managing hardware settings and a sequence of software tasks to be used in online; the Event Metadata System (EMS) for indexing and searching physics events for a particular analysis; and the Electronic Logbook (e-Log platform) to record and share information on experiment runs during the sessions. In addition, the BM@N uses various collaboration services, which have been already deployed, such as the official website, collaboration forum, document server (Wiki). Security policy is ensured through the Keycloak, authentication and authorization system, which centralizes access control to BM@N software systems. The paper covers the description of the deployed infrastructure on a cluster platform managed by the Proxmox system, which oversees virtualization and containerization of the components. The integrated single reverse proxy ensures centralized secure access to all the software systems of the experiment. As a result, the developed infrastructure with the information systems and software services ensures the management of information being necessary for physics analysis of experiment data within the BM@N experiment.
