PyTables is a hierarchical database package designed to efficiently manage very large amounts of data. PyTables is built on top of the HDF5 library and the NumPy package. It features an object-oriented interface that, combined with natural naming and C-code generated from Pyrex sources, makes it a fast, yet extremely easy to use tool for interactively save and retrieve large amounts of data.
- Compound types (records) can be used entirely from Python (i.e. it is not necessary to use C for taking advantage of them).
- The tables are both enlargeable and compressible.
- I/O is buffered, so you can get very fast I/O, specially with large tables.
- Very easy to select data through the use of iterators over the rows in tables. Extended slicing is supported as well.
- It supports the complete set of NumPy, Numeric and numarray objects.
This is the Python 3 version of the package.
