abstract = {{Digital twins, i.e. theory and design tools connected to the real devices and machine by mapping of physics components to the technical correspondents, are powerful tools providing accelerators with commissioning predictions and feedback capabilities. This paper describes a new tool allowing for greater flexibility in configuring the modelling part combined with ease of adding new features. To enable the various components developed in EPICS, Python, C, and C++ to work together seamlessly, we adopt a microservice architecture, with REST API services providing the interfaces between the components. End user scripts are implemented as REST API services, allowing for better data analysis and visualization. Finally, the paper describes the integration of dash and ploty for enhanced data comparison and visualization. Overall, this workflow provides a powerful and flexible solution for managing and optimizing BESSY II digital twins, with the potential for further customization and extension to upcoming machines. }},
