Implementing Crashproofing in HDF5! Neil Fortner on Call the Doctor Tuesday, April 2
Show Notes

The HDF Group's Neil Fortner presented a design for a new feature we’d like to implement to bring crash proofing to HDF5. This feature will allow HDF5 files to be easily recoverable, even if application execution is interrupted due to an application crash, system crash, or hardware failure. The feature is designed to be easy to use and add minimal overhead.

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.

Join us every Tuesday at 12:20 p.m. central (US/Canada.) on Zoom!
