The HDF Group hosted a webinar presented by the Hermes team on Friday, August 5, 2022. Hermes is a distributed I/O buffering system for deep distributed storage hierarchies, which are commonly found on modern HPC systems. This webinar will highlight an exciting new component of the library, the Buffer Organizer, which will be released in Hermes 0.8.0-beta. Slide Deck https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MMIlpx5YqFU  ...

M. Scot Breitenfeld, HDF application support specialist and software engineer at The HDF Group, will present a session, Introduction to HDF5 for HPC Data Models, Analysis, and Performance on July 27, 2022. Scot's talk offers a comprehensive overview of HDF5 for anyone who works with big data in an HPC environment. The talk consists of two parts. Part I introduces the HDF5 data model and APIs for organizing data and performing I/O. Part II focuses on HDF5 advanced features such as parallel I/O and will give an overview of various parallel HDF5 tuning techniques such as collective metadata I/O, data aggregation, async, parallel compression, and other new HDF5 features that help to utilize HPC storage to its fullest potential. Please register to attend Scot's...
