The TileDB Array Data Storage Manager

Summary: TileDB is a storage manager for scientific arrays, optimized for both dense and sparse data via fragment- and tile-based organization. Fragment-driven writes become sequential; a fast read algorithm and lightweight locking give thread/process safety, delivering faster writes than SciDB/Vertica and competitive reads versus HDF5 on dense arrays.
