Does this skill support cloud providers like AWS and GCP?

Yes, the skill provides specific implementation patterns for integrating Zarr with AWS S3 and Google Cloud Storage using the s3fs and gcsfs libraries.

What is the primary benefit of using Zarr for scientific data?

Zarr allows you to store and access massive N-dimensional arrays efficiently by dividing them into chunks that can be compressed and accessed in parallel, making it ideal for cloud-native workflows and large-scale data analysis.

Can I use Zarr with Dask for parallel processing?

Absolutely. Zarr is designed to work seamlessly with Dask, allowing for lazy loading and parallel computation on datasets that are far too large to fit into a single machine's RAM.

How does Zarr differ from HDF5?

While similar to HDF5 in hierarchy, Zarr is designed specifically for cloud and parallel environments, storing chunks as separate objects or files to avoid the bottlenecks often associated with single-file formats.
