| Abstract | The ATLAS EventIndex is the global catalogue of all ATLAS real and simulated events. During the LHC long shutdown between Run 2 (2015-2018) and Run 3 (2022-2025) all its components were substantially revised and a new system was deployed for the start of Run 3 in Spring 2022. The new core storage system, based on HBase tables with a Phoenix interface rather than HDFS MapFiles, allows much faster data ingestion rates and scales much better than the old one to the data rates expected for the end of Run 3 and beyond. All user interfaces were also revised and a new command-line interface and web services were also deployed. The new system was initially populated with all existing data relative to Run 1 and Run 2 datasets, and then put online to receive Run 3 data in real time. After extensive testing, the old system, which ran in parallel to the new one for a few months, was finally switched off in October 2022. This paper describes the new system, the move of all existing data from the old to the new storage schemas and the operational experience gathered so far. |
