AB  - The dCache project delivers an open-source, massively scalable, distributed storage system deployed internationally to satisfy today’s scientists’ ever-demanding storage requirements. Its multifaceted approach supports different use cases with the same storage, from high throughput data ingest, data sharing over wide area networks, efficient access from HPC clusters, and longterm data persistence on tertiary storage. Even though dCache was initially developed for HEP experiments, today, it is used by various scientific communities, including astrophysics, biomed, and life science, each with their specific requirements. To match the needs of these new communities and keep up with the scaling demands of existing experiments, dCache is permanently evolving. With this contribution, we would like to highlight the recent developments in dCache regarding integration with CERN Tape Archive (CTA), advanced metadata handling, token-based authorization support, bulk API for QoS transitions, REST API to control interaction with the tape system, and future development directions.
