IceProd - a dataset management system for IceCube: update

Abstract

IceCube is a cubic kilometer neutrino detector located at the south pole. IceProd is IceCube’s internal dataset management system, keeping track of where, when, and how jobs run. It schedules jobs from submitted datasets to HTCondor, keeping track of them at every stage of the lifecycle. Many updates have happened in the last years to improve stability and scalability, as well as increase user access. Along the way, the IceProd codebase switched from Python 2 to Python 3.
