Rucio crosses the exabyte horizon
Rucio crosses the exabyte horizon When we last wrote in these pages about Rucio, ATLAS had just passed the half-exabyte mark and the community counted around thirty organisations. Six years on, a threshold that was then a distant projection has been crossed: both ATLAS and CMS, the two largest LHC experiments, now each manage more

Scientific data management with Rucio
Scientific data management with Rucio Today's scientific experiments are manifold and diverse in their objectives, size, and workflows. However, one commonality uniting most, if not all, scientific experiments is the creation and analysis of data. Managing these scientific datasets is becoming an increasingly complex and complicated challenge. We have evolved from storing data in single
