What it is?
PyTables is a library for managing hierarchical datasets and designed to efficiently cope with extremely large amounts of data with support for full 64-bit file addressing. PyTables runs on top of the HDF5 library and NumPy package for achieving maximum throughput and convenient use. PyTables includes OPSI, a new indexing technology, allowing to perform data lookups in tables exceeding 10 gigarows (10**10 rows) in less than a tenth of a second.

Acknowledgments
Thanks to many users who provided feature improvements, patches, bug reports, support and suggestions. See the THANKS file in the distribution package for a (incomplete) list of contributors. Most specially, a lot of kudos go to the HDF5 and NumPy makers. Without them, PyTables simply would not exist.
