  In the SPring-8 upgrade project, we plan to use the linear accelerator of SACLA as a full-energy injector to the storage ring. For the purpose of simultaneous operation of XFEL lasing and on-demand injection, we developed a new control framework that inherits the concepts of MADOCA. We plan to use the same control framework for a 3 GeV light source under construction at Tohoku, Japan. Messaging of the new control system is based on the MQTT protocol, which enables slow control and data acquisition with sub-second response time. The data acquisition framework, named MDAQ, covers both periodic polling and event-synchronizing data. To ensure scalability, we applied a key-value storage scheme, Apache Cassandra, to the logging database of the MDAQ. We also developed a new parameter database scheme, that handles operational parameter sets for XFEL lasing and on-demand top-up injection. These parameter sets are combined into 60 Hz operation patterns. For the top-up injection, we can select the operational pattern every second on an on-demand basis. In this paper, we report an overview of the new control system and the preliminary results of the integrated operation of SACLA and SPring-8.

  At SACLA, the X-ray free electron laser (XFEL) facility, we have been operating the electron linac in time-sharing (equal duty) mode between beamlines. The next step is to vary the duty factor on an on-demand basis and to bring the beam into the SP8 storage ring. It is a part of a big picture of an upgrade*. The low-emittance beam is ideal for the next generation storage ring. In every 60 Hz repetition cycle, we have to deal a bunch of electrons properly. The challenge here is we must keep the beam quality for the XFEL demands while responding occasional injection requests from the storage ring**. This paper describes the database system that supports both SACLA/SP8 operations. The system is a combination of RDB and NoSQL databases. In the on-demand beam switching operation, the RDB part keeps the parameters to define sequences, which include a set of one-second route patterns, and a bucket sequence for the injection, etc. As for data analysis, it is going to be a post-process to build an event for a certain route, because not all equipment get the route command in real time. We present the preparation status toward the standard operation for beamline users.
