All,

I am new to the group and I have been searching documentation  with no luck
to my question. I realize  fastbit is meant to query "read only" datasets
and I can see there is an append and write methods to handle inserting.  I
am wondering what others practice is when  the requirements include deleting
and updating  a record. Is it possible to incorporate deleting/updating
while still using fastbit? I am also considering to use HDF5 Table API to
manage time series data, please correct me if I am wrong but from what I
have studied so far, it is not possible to make fast-bit and HDF5 table to
work together out of the box  as fast-bit works on raw binary data.  That
said, it seems like a better approach to use only fast bit API for data
management purposes to reduce the overall overhead of converting from
another format to raw binary.

 

Thanks in advance

Mehmet A Atlihan
