I use a control system (50K+ parameters).
i would like to take a snapshot/backup of a running configuration and
save all the 50K+ parameters in one file.
A feature I need is to compare snapshot with each others.

For example: how does the current configuration compare to the
snapshot taken 3 weeks ago.
1/ list of parameters to save are in a table of a h5  (50K+ parameters)
2/ take a snapshot (for each row extend with value of parameter)
3/ compare new snapshot to old snapshot where parameter names are the
same ( with a tolerance on the parameter let's say of 1% up to 3%
function of parameter)

Also is there a way to easily edit h5 files (not sure vitables can do
that based on its old documentation) and add a parameter in a table
for future backup.

I am interested in h5 because my parameters can be classified in
/machine_id/systems/subsystems all of which could be groups. would be
nice for browsing and selective restore.

Any info on vitables and editable entries/row in tables?
At this point, I am not yet convinced I should use h5/pytables yet...
just exploring....

Doing More with Less: The Next Generation Virtual Desktop 
What are the key obstacles that have prevented many mid-market businesses
from deploying virtual desktops?   How do next-generation virtual desktops
provide companies an easier-to-deploy, easier-to-manage and more affordable
virtual desktop model.http://www.accelacomm.com/jaw/sfnl/114/51426474/
