AbstractBesides the data taking and reconstruction the analysis of the Physics Data is a major part in Physics Computing. Currently a new structure, which should last for the next years (maybe the next millenium), is introduced in the computing for Physics Analysis at DESY which closely follows a Client-Server-Model and which is based on the Workgroup-Server-Concept (first introduced at CERN).
The talk will give an overview about this new structure, which includes File-Servers, Workgroup-Servers, and Batch-Servers. Special emphasis will be given to the handling of different classes of data inside of such a distributed system. The important point here is how to avoid unnecessary network traffic. Other key topics include management of that distributed system and load balancing issues.
Also presented in this talk are experiences with that system and future developments.
