DESY, with its 2700 employees at its two locations in Hamburg and Zeuthen, is one of the world's leading research centres. Its research focuses on decoding the structure and function of matter, from the smallest particles of the universe to the building blocks of life. In this way, DESY contributes to solving the major questions and urgent challenges facing science, society and industry. With its ultramodern research infrastructure, its interdisciplinary research platforms and its international networks, DESY offers a highly attractive working environment in the fields of science, technology and administration as well as for the education of highly qualified young scientists.

The group Information Technology (IT) provides infrastructure and services for computing and data management for DESY and its guests. The computer center operates large storage, computing and networking infrastructures to process large amounts of experimental data. DESY IT Group is developing a high performance distributed streaming middleware (ASAPO) which is aimed to support data analysis for Photon Science experiments executed at local X-ray accelerator facilities. The main challenges are to shape the developed solution to scientific use cases with their specific workflows, data structure and performance requirements.
