  HZB is hosting two light sources: BESSY II and MLS. As for any light source regular commissioning task are required for monitoring machines performance next to developing and establishing new operation modes. The current modernization of the commissioning software itself is based on the BlueSky software stack. A digital twin is used as backend for testing the software itself next to providing a tuneable online machine model. We describe our users experience, exemplify commissioning tools simplifications due to the Bluesky software framework and describe the design choices made for the used digital twin.

  At the HZB user facility BESSY II Machine Learning (ML) technologies aim at advanced analysis, automation, explainability and performance improvements for accelerator and beamline operation. The development of these tools is intertwined with improvements of the prediction part of the digital twin instances at BESSY II [*] and the integration into the Bluesky Suite [**,***]. On the accelerator side, several use cases have recently been identified, pipelines designed and models tested. Previous studies applied Deep Reinforcement Learning (RL) to booster current and injection efficiency. RL now tackles a more demanding scenario: the mitigation of harmonic orbit perturbations induced by external civil noise sources. This paper presents methodology, design and simulation phases as well as challenges and first results. Further ML use cases under study are, among others, anomaly detection prototypes with anomaly scores for individual features.

  The modernization plan for the experimental DAQ at the BESSY II is underpinned by the capabilities provided by the Bluesky software ecosystem. To interface with the hardware Bluesky relies on the Ophyd library, that provides a consistent high-level interface across a wide-range of devices. Many elements of the accelerator, some beamlines and endstations are adopting the Bluesky software. To meet FAIR data obligations, the capture of metadata with Bluesky and the export into a permanent and easily accessible storage called ICAT are investigated. Finally, initial studies to investigate the integration of ML methods, like reinforcement learning were performed. This paper reports on the work that has been done so far at BESSY II to adopt Bluesky, problems that have been overcome and lessons learned.
