Four Parts of the Leginon System¶

Leginon as a system that we distribute can be divided into three parts:

Processing Server (Python-side)¶

Python (and some c) scripts that handle instrument control, data acquisition, and
processing.

Database Server (MySQL-side)¶

a MySQL server that handles the database

Web Server (PHP-side)¶

This includes php and Java scripts at a webserver that we will create to retrieve image
and metadata from the database and file-storage system.

File Server¶

This is up to you to set up to store lots of data coming out of Leginon system.
