This software was originally developed at NSLS-II and has been one of the most important tools for NSLS-II accelerator commissioning and routine operation. Just like EPICS Channel Access (CA) which has CA client and CA server, MASAR system has MASAR client and MASAR server. The server takes machine snapshots, archives data in a relational database, and retrieves data from the database.
