Description

The ATLAS experiment will be upgraded within the next decade for the high luminosity LHC upgrade. The high pile-up interaction environment (on average 200 interactions per 40MHz bunch crossing) requires a radiation hard tracking detector with a fast readout. The Inner Tracker (ITk) upgrade is entering the production phase in an international effort to produce more than 27,000 detector modules in institutes around the globe. The ITk Production Database tracks the location of all components and provides a repository for quality control and assurance tests used to monitor production rates and yields. Component information will be retained for 10 years of running in order to support data-taking performance.
Examples will be provided of ITk community tools for PDB population and reporting. General themes of large-scale data management and multi-user global accessibility are now standard to LHC-scale detector production. These concepts are relevant to modern high-energy particle physics and large experiments beyond HEP. The goal of this presentation is to promote information exchange and collaboration of tools which can support production.
