  Description     : FDB (Fields DataBase) is a domain-specific object store for 
storing, indexing and retrieving GRIB data.

FDB (Fields DataBase) is a domain-specific object store developed at ECMWF
for storing, indexing and retrieving GRIB data. Each GRIB message is stored as 
a field and indexed
trough semantic metadata (i.e. physical variables such as temperature, 
pressure, ...).
A set of fields can be retrieved specifying a request using a specific language 
developed for accessing MARS_ Archive

FDB exposes a C++ API as well as CLI tools_.
 
This is to be used by the rest of the ECMWF (European Centre for Medium-Range 
Weather Forecasts)
stack currently on Debian - Metview, etc.
