With the successful restart of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), now operating at nearly twice its former collision energy, comes an enormous increase in the volume of data physicists must sift through to search for new discoveries. Thanks to planning and a pilot project funded by the offices of Advanced Scientific Computing Research and High-Energy Physics within the Department of Energy's Office of Science, a remarkable data-management tool developed by physicists at DOE's Brookhaven National Laboratory and the University of Texas at Arlington is evolving to meet the big-data challenge.
