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. 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.
