Hi Baron, I would like to request a new forum relating to technologies and innovations. This would be great for us to discuss possible investment vehicles pertaining to new product/industry developments. I think it fits right in here at ET, and am actually surprised it doesn't already...

It seems I remember a similar rebuttal before. Maybe it was even by you max. I don't know. Perhaps if the country of Cuba wasn't still embargoed, they would possibly have a better economy. Hell the cold war has been over for 20 years.

Did those of you who watched the Congressional Medal of Honor ceremony want to reach out and smack the President for not having the fore-thought to have a handkerchief to offer the grieving mother. I could not believe, while I was waiting for the handkerchief to appear, that it never...

I love it when a person that comments about a subject, actually backs it up with real facts and not just more rhetoric. Well done dcraig.... touch'e! :D

A "point" is objectively relative to it's contextual unit. I've noticed that how a point is referenced here on ET, is frequently mis-interpreted. -kt

Hi dcraig, I don't even know how to work with any sql, so i can't help with profiling. But, I would guess that by the vast amount of scientists, researchers, etc. using hdf5 by some means, would answer that by implication. Besides hdf5 itself, NetCDF is very popular and uses hdf5 as it's...

Well, that depends on what your provider provides and on what/how you decide to apply it.

tm, thanks for your comments. Well my coming from a C, C++ point of view, makes me believe that sql is pretty much a novelty; a convenient protocol of a language format.. if you will. I still don't see how sql or even a "streamSQL" is advantageous, considering (specifically to what you...

Am I wrong that sql is nothing more than a "higher level" interface. I can implement the exact same functionality myself, with the same syntax if desired.

Nitro knows more than I, but I don't see how the hdf5 packet table interface would not be considered an efficient stream db... minus the sql syntax, which I don't yet understand as being so beneficial. Hell, since it's in use with Boeing systems and they helped the NCSA* with it's design...

I guess nitro hasn't been able to make his way back here to help me with my understanding. Can any of you help me to understand nitro's comment. Hopefully he'll also chime in when he's able to. Thank you, kt

The documents are very complete. I don't know a thing about the Java interface, so I obviously can't help you specifically there. The tutorial is the place to start. Then, the user guide is very detailed. The API docs are concise. Even though it's written in C, it lends itself to an object...

Hi TM, What in particular would you like to know?

That should help perception. As always, thanks. -kt

Hi nitro, I have never used an sql (relational db) and have only briefly touched upon learning it. From my layman's point of view, I would rather do queries in the native programming language and not some query language tied to the db. From what I understand, this type of db is...

The HDF Group Home Page Hi. Just to enlighten of alternatives and share my streaming data (capturing) and db tool preferences. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Naturally, it's open source software. -kt Introduction to the HDF5 Packet Table API (more info) This image...

Sure, But don't forget the upcoming ARM adjustments on those sub-prime loans, that were "sold" to the many un-suspecting perspective buyers. They're gonna hurt, but we'll see if it has an actual macro effect or not.

Hi. Do you have a source for the article? thanks
