Description
The Rucio software by default uses the ADLER32 checksum algorithm to verify the integrity of files within the Rucio 'datalake'. While this algorithm has been successful, it is typically not as well supported as other algorithms (e.g. CRC32C) which can benefit from Hardware-based computation, or already be available from within storage systems (e.g. Ceph).
As assessment of the optimal checksum algorithm for SRCNet Data storage should be performed and a recommendation be presented to be implemented / adopted within Rucio.
Delaying this for too long may prevent an easy transition (should one be needed).
