Managed storage systems at CERN

The amount of data produced by the future LHC experiments requires fundamental changes in the management of the mass storage environment.At present the contents of the CERN tape libraries are not transparently managed.The experimental data rates and volumes will grow by more than an order of magnitude in future.This implies major changes in the management of centrally stored data.Several efforts to address this challenge are described in this paper.
