In this "Call the Doctor" session hosted by Aleksander Jelenak, the agenda was opened for questions regarding h5py or Cloud optimization of HDF files. The discussion delveed into understanding the applicability of techniques used in h5py to the VOL connector for HSDS, emphasizing the nuances between Python and C approaches. Additionally, considerations are made regarding read-only implementations, the trade-offs of network latency, and the potential for compressing data to enhance performance in HSDS. Throughout, there's an exploration of user expectations, performance evaluation, and recent developments in Cloud-optimized HDF files, including issues identified by users such as those from the NASA PACE satellite mission.

Call the Doctor is a series of weekly, unscripted, live events! The HDF Group’s staff members will answer attendee questions and, for example, go over the previous week’s HDF Forum posts. The HDF Clinics are free sessions intended to help users tackle real-world HDF problems from a common cold to severe headaches and offer relief where that’s possible. As time permits, we will include how-tos, offer advice on tool usage, review your code samples, teach you survival in the documentation jungle, and discuss what’s new or just around the corner in the land of HDF.
