Abstract

As the scientific data become larger and larger, a method is needed to store and retrieve it in time- and cost-efficient way. NCSA HDF is a data/programming model widely used for storing and sharing scientific data. We present an approach to store large volumes of structured scientific data in HDF format on tertiary storage.
