Requirements
Rucio relies on several dependencies, some of them being a hard requirement, others being optional depending on the used Rucio functionality.
To install Rucio, we generally recommend a Kubernetes-based deployment based on our helm-charts. A direct deployment using Rucio docker containers, or Rucio pip packages is also possible.
Python
Rucio server, daemons and clients are written in Python and thus depend on an installed Python interpreter.
