ESTEDI, an initiative of European software vendors and supercomputing centres, will establish a European standard for the storage and retrieval of multidimensional high-performance computing (HPC) data. It addresses a main technical obstacle, the delivery bottleneck of large HPC results to the users, by augmenting high-volume data generators with a flexible data management and extraction tool for spatio-temporal raster data. To this end, the multidimensional database system RasDaMan will be enhanced with intelligent mass storage handling and optimised towards HPC.
