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 and adaptive file movement. 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. If Mu2e were to adopt it, it would likely replace SAM metadata and ifdh. It likely has a prestage function, but is not clear if it has a SAM project functionality.
