- AI-native data storage for CarbonData's new scope, In AI projects, data
scientists and engineers spend 80% of their time on data preparation.
Traditional storage presents numerous bottlenecks in this process:
- Data silos: Training data may be scattered across data lakes, data
warehouses, file systems, object storage, and other locations, making
integration difficult.

- Lack of metadata management: The lack of effective management of rich
metadata such as data versions, lineage, annotation information, and
experimental parameters leads to poor experimental reproducibility.
- Vectorization requirements: Modern AI models (such as large language
models) convert all data into vector embeddings. Traditional storage cannot
efficiently store and retrieve high-dimensional vectors.

## Features
CarbonData file format is a columnar store in HDFS, it has many features that
a modern columnar format has, such as splittable, compression schema, complex
data type etc, and CarbonData has following unique features:
* Stores data along with index: it can significantly accelerate query
performance and reduces the I/O scans and CPU resources, where there are
filters in the query. CarbonData index consists of multiple level of indices,
a processing framework can leverage this index to reduce the task it needs to
schedule and process, and it can also do skip scan in more finer grain unit
(called blocklet) in task side scanning instead of scanning the whole file.
