Description
In this presentation, we explore the integration of cloud storage solutions within the ATLAS experiment using Rucio and FTS, with a focus on the SEAL case study. Cloud storage providers offer compelling use cases for the scientific community, such as on-demand scaling, multi-cloud Kubernetes clusters, and long-term archival options. We will discuss SEAL's current infrastructure, including performance metrics like transfer efficiency and throughput, as well as ongoing improvements with ESnet integration and storage consistency checking.
Additionally, we introduce the Rucio Cloud Cost Management Daemon, designed to optimize cloud usage and reduce operational costs.
