Hello, I am a research assistant working in Iowa State University. Currently I am implementing HDF5 in my work where it is required to write huge amounts of data into a file. The data is a 1D array.
Because portability and human readability are required, HDF5 looks like a good choice. I am wondering if someone with any knowledge of Intersystems Cache Data Model can explain if it can be an alternative for the sort of data that I am looking to store. I came across some article that Cache is the fastest database around. I just need to write out data to file/database with high speeds and binary like file size(ascii is too large). I do not need to query the database but if the file size and write speeds are better, I want to think about Cache. I do not have sufficient knowledge about Cache to know if it is a good or a bad choice for my requirements. Can someone please help me understanding the pro's and con's of each and what may be more suitable for me? Thank You. Nikhil
