This document describes the FLARECAST infrastructure architecture on a very high level. Featuring an agile development approach, we put our forces into writing readable and well structured code, rather than extensive documentation, which tends to become outdated too soon anyway. Consequently the main purpose of this document is to give a the reader hints where to look for detailed information.

- We designed and implemented a first prototype of the computing and development infrastructure. The main objective was to provide an infrastructure that can be installed on the FLARECAST computing hardware in UPSud as well as on the developer’s local machines. Obviously the local machines can host a subset of the full installation only.
The document contains the following parts:
