Abstract

The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) is an unprecedented long baseline neutrino experiment that aims to measure various neutrino mixing parameters. With state-of-the-art technology, DUNE will measure neutrino mixing angles (θ13, θ12, θ23) and a Charge-Parity (CP) violating phase (δcp) with precision and will determine the elusive mass ordering. In order to accomplish these goals, scientists all over the world must have quick and reliable access to the data provided by the DUNE detectors. The data caching system known as Frontier is a distributed database caching system that was previously used in other large particle physics experiments for this purpose. Frontier is shown not just to work within the DUNE software, but, also, it clearly has potential to improve response time. As DUNE develops its software, Frontier will be a vital tool to help DUNE scientists achieve their experimental goals.
