Python Implementation of the Dynamic Distributed Dimensional Data Model (2209.00602v2)

Abstract: Python has become a standard scientific computing language with fast-growing support of machine learning and data analysis modules, as well as an increasing usage of big data. The Dynamic Distributed Dimensional Data Model (D4M) offers a highly composable, unified data model with strong performance built to handle big data fast and efficiently. In this work we present an implementation of D4M in Python. $D4M.py$ implements all foundational functionality of D4M and includes Accumulo and SQL database support via Graphulo. We describe the mathematical background and motivation, an explanation of the approaches made for its fundamental functions and building blocks, and performance results which compare $D4M.py$'s performance to D4M-MATLAB and D4M.jl.
