Introduction
Rucio is a CERN software system for storing file metadata and organizing the delivery of that data to users. Its primary features are scalability, flexibility, adaptive file replication, and built-in monitoring. It can use various backends for databases, various platforms for its servers and daemons, various transfer and storage method plug-ins, and a command line and python interface for users.
The new system would consist of these parts
- Metacat - a new database of file metadata
- Rucio - a database of file locations, and servers which can move and track data, responding to user rules
- Data Dispatcher - a modern replacement for SAM project file delivery
At Fermilab the status of these systems is:
- Metacat - in use by ProtoDUNE
- Rucio - in use by ProtoDUNE
- Data Dispatcher - will be ready on time to support the next ProtoDUNE run at CERN, April 2023.
All 3 components must be available before POMS can be ported to move from SAM to these components.
